I've just upgraded to a machine that I care enough about to look into filtering the water I use.
At first I thought it would be as simple as get a (relatively) cheap Brita jug, some new filters every now and again - bam, sorted. No so apparently....
As far as I can tell, there are a couple of options:
What I'd reaaaally like is a Brita jug type device that does soften water that I can fill and put in the cupboard and use when needed. Does such a thing exist?
Another thought I had was buying bottled water that is softer, but I don't even know if this is a thing. I can buy "Natural Spring Water" from the supermarket for ~$0.50 a litre, it'd be great if I could just use that.
Any thoughts from CS on this? Anyone been in a similar position?

As far as I can tell, there are a couple of options:
- Under sink filter - can't justify as the only coffee drinker in the house
- Retrofit a countertop solution like an Aqua Pro - wife says no
- Do nothing and let the scale build up - not keen on this either
