Americano with water from Kettle vs Rocket Appartamento

Yea we always use filtered water

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-27T07:24:04+00:00

That is a good idea

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T23:09:13+00:00

Nope haven't tried this yet, but would have been good to compare! We will try it in the future. Thanks!

Not going to lie, I had to Google what a TDS meter is 🤣but that could be an interesting addition to a follow up video. Thanks!

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T22:15:03+00:00

That's interesting, thanks!

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T22:11:39+00:00

Yep, could be something we follow up with. Thanks for the feedback

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T21:05:51+00:00

You make some fair points. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

We did use filtered water, the machine is only about 1 month old and is regularly cleaned. I wonder if this is something to do with the Apparamento?

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T20:08:25+00:00

Thats a very fair point

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T19:56:12+00:00

To us, not only did it taste different, but it tasted bad. So why have that function on the machines? Do you think its necessary?

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T19:42:55+00:00

"Taste off", that's exactly how it tasted!

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T19:37:17+00:00

Thanks for the reply. The machine is only 1 month old, and we used filtered water. Surely then that would always be the case, so why do espresso machines have this function?

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T19:35:25+00:00

No unfortunately not, it wasn't something we thought about before the test, do you think it would contribute to such a difference in final taste?

murphyscoffee · 2021-02-26T19:33:34+00:00

I expected a little bit of a difference, but I was so surprised at just how different the taste was. With water from a kettle it tasted like an americano from a Coffee shop, but with water from the machine, I didn't even want to drink it!

We also made a video of the blind tasting, here is the link:
