I went to two supermarkets and a target this evening but the shelves of all were devoid of distilled water! Is this local to me (Baltimore, MD area) or have others experienced it too?

In the end I bought a gallon of purified water, which sounds like distilled water + added...

For those of you making what seems to be coined 'rpavlis water', how are you making it? I've seen it mentioned many times and I've seen some posts where people provide different measurements for it, but it wasn't until today that I looked for rpavlis' actual post that spells it...

Am using a water filtration system so wondering whether it's safe enough or I should use the Brita Filter as recommended.

Have attached the report on the water quality.

If possible, I would like to avoid spending more (on the...

Hi!

I recently purchased a new (to me) Profitec Pro 300 in excellent condition. Because this machine is a dual boiler and the official recommendation is to not attempt at-home descaling, I would like to be as proactive as possible at preventing scale buildup in the machine.

I am getting more serious about espresso and I would like to know how my (tap) water is and if there is something I should do about it to improve my extractions while protecting the espresso machine.

Extracted from my municipality's (Gothenburg, Sweden) water report, the tap...
