After a year of buying bottled water I decided to test my water as Adelaide water is supposed to be very hard. To my surprise The test strip said my water was around 100ppm hardness. My water is filtered through a Puratap filter which doesn't do anything for water hardness. I then tested the water from the machine which has an in tank water softener and that showed a hardness of around 50ppm.
I'm thinking of upgrading to a new machine next year to a HX machine. I have read that the new stainless steel boilers really need the Brita c150 finest filter to keep the stainless steel in good condition. Before replacing my Puratap I was wondering what the taste of the water is like with these filters? I hear it's great for espresso but haven't heard anything about using it for drinking water. Here is a breakdown of my mains water from water S.AYour local drinking water report.pdf
