Filtered water brews better coffee

The quality of water used in brewing coffee or tea will definitely impact the taste of your favorite beverage. The preparation of coffee or tea is a steeping process in which the coffee grounds or tea leaves are mixed with near-boiling water. The flavor of both beverages is extracted through the exchange of the heat and the minerals in the water.

Brewing great coffee requires a quality drip coffee maker

The low-end drip coffee makers, let's say those priced below $30, seem to allow the water to pass through the ground coffee too quickly. The true flavor of the coffee is produced by the exchange of the heat and the minerals in the water. So, if the water is not hot enough or passes through too rapidly, the coffee will not have the best flavor.
