Microwaved water makes tea taste flat and gives a weird aftertaste.
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoProbably aeration difference?
- DanBC 11y agoIf I had FU money I'd set up a rapid double blind testing site to check claims like this.
- michael_h 11y ago...or you could have a couple friends come over and check it on your own. The difference is not subtle.
- kazinator 11y agoIt's probably the container. Nuke up some water and before using it, pour it into the same kettle where it would be heated by other means; see if it still tastes different.
- fl0wenol 11y agoI microwave my water for coffee and tea in a glass french press container which has had enough use that it doesn't let the water superheat... this is important to prevent aftertaste (superheated water burns the tea).
