    bottled water and grand central

    Another Evian loather, here. Brita-filtered NYC tap water tastes just fine compared to Evian. One question. Why do relatively few restaurants serve Evian?

    Wouldn't water softener effect the taste?

    that is diverted, which I use for cooking and to keep in a Brita-filtered water pitcher for drinking. The Brita removes the irony taste without adding salt or doing whatever it is that water softeners do. Depending on where you...

    Homemade Bitters

    then tried to filter them through a Brita. The Brita sorta let me down; it’s just not capable of catching the fine sediment. After letting the Ball jars settle for a few days after the unsuccessful Brita filtering,...

    more on tea

    (i.e., harder) water? Brita-filtered or distilled (i.e., softer) water? Arrowhead deliveries? 2) A few months ago I had some great chrysanthemum tea (with the pretty floating yellow flowers and all) at one of the dim sum palaces

    Is tap water safe in SF?

    , Brita-filter it. I think you’re fine. If you find yourself clinging to cable cars singing the Rice-a-Roni jingle while waving a rainbow-coloured flag, you might want to find something else to drink, like beer (which is...

    Soda Siphons vs. Club Soda

    love it! The SodaClub maker allows you to vary the fizz level so it’s perfect when using different mixing ingredients. (We use a brita filter for our tap water and go from there.) We’ve had it since December. So far,...
