How hard is your water and how high above sea level do you live?
- spiffytech 1y agoVery soft. Elevation is nearly sea-level.
- cestith 1y agoWell, objectively very soft water cooks things a tiny bit slower than harder water, but being close to sea level should cook things a little faster. It probably is down to either taste or the labeling on your pasta.
- Night_Thastus 1y agoHow does water hardness affect it? Mine is on the harder end, I've been wondering if that is giving me trouble.
- RogerL 1y agoHard water will boil at a higher temperature, but it's only a degree or two.
- bromuro 1y agoPlus, pasta start cooking at 80 ºC. No need to keep the water boiling like crazy :)
- RandallBrown 1y agoBoiling like crazy or not, it's still just 100C if it's boiling at all isn't it? I guess at a really low boil there could be cooler parts of the water.
