It may require a lot of tea to surpass the level of concern, but using filtered water for brewing would appear to be incrementally better.

I drink a lot of tea and herbal teas. I get my water from my well.

People eventually die from drinking water.

I use spring water for my tea and I don’t boil it! I do buy British tea. Pretty snobby but so much better than any other I’ve tried. I drink green tea too.

I find that using water containing Chlorine and/or Floride to brew tea makes it unpalatable anyway.

If you are drinking water from the tap you are poisoning yourself. We filter every drop we consume through a Berkey water filter. It takes out everything. Best $215 we ever spent.

Probably most people never thought of this, good find. There must be chlorine in regular water because fisheries let the water sit out for several days to allow chlorine to escape before putting hatchlings in. The farmers say water straight from the hose would kill the freshly hatched young.

I’m sensitive to the taste of tea, especially green teas. I definitely notice the difference with water that has not been put through a carbon filter, also some well-waters really can mess up the taste also.

Let tap water sit out overnight and most chlorine will evaporate. We do this for coffee and when we make bread and pizza dough because it tastes better and the yeast works better with no chlorine.

Don’t white tea bags and Kuereg pod filters contain chlorine? European ones are tannish in color.

My 3rd book is entirely about drinking water.

Most people haven’t a clue what’s in the water they’re drinking.

First of all you should not drink chlorinated tapwater

I personally distilled my own water

you can buy a love distiller for $99 that does 1 gallon at a time

or much more expensive models that cost $600-$1000

At the very least you should get a call again or other water filtration system to take out as much of the ions that are in the water before you drink it

This is our favorite, and preferred, water....

We are on well water, that is filtered, but the above is our go-to bottled water.

A carbon filter in the water line would remove most of the chlorine.
