Why should I care about water quality when brewing coffee?
Flavor: Water can flatten the taste of your coffee.
Extraction: Coffee requires certain minerals present to properly extract, pulling the coffee flavors out of the bean and into your cup.
Protect your investment: if you purchased all of the right brewing gear and $10+/lb for coffee, why ruin the experience with bad water?
