Often, when trying a beer, we looked only as malt, hops, yeast and other ingredients we offer the taste and smell. However, there is a component that is more and no less than 97% approx. what is the beer, water. The precious liquid delivers many qualities to the beer (mainly salts and minerals), and is responsible for many recipes are unique and unrepeatable, because the water if the eye is the same worldwide, quality and features if they change according to place of origin. Is not the same water that rises in the Andes, which originates in the Alps or the Himalayas.
Given this premise, I gave myself the task of testing three different types of water (tap water, bottled water and other home country skiing) and were quite interesting conclusions as it went.
Tap Water: This type of water is pretty hard to find original taste (unless you take some directly from the purification plant), because they affect many aspects such as the state of distribution networks plumbing, distance from the plant, etc. in their sensory characteristics.
What I can say is that the liquid coming out of the faucets in my house is a very subtle touches water has chlorine, metal and plastic. As regards its aroma has a minimal presence of chlorine. National
bottled : In this case, I chose a name brand and very popular, in which the manufacturer claims that the water is 100% natural, pure spring water and no chemical processing. In the nutrition table, you inform the consumer that has a presence of sodium in the order of 0.208 mg / mL of water.
Its flavor and aroma, it is almost clean and free of chlorine or other chemicals, has a tiny body gasification and much lighter than tap water. Imported Bottled
: In this case, I chose one that, according to its manufacturer, comes from the French Alps. In its nutritional table report that the water contains a series of salts and minerals. As I discussed in the national presence sodium, it has it in the order of 0.0065 mg / mL (much lower). Your body is the lightest of the three, almost seems that one was drinking air, however, has a tiny taste and disturbing sweet notes (probably by the components that informs the nutritional table). Its aroma if clean.
however, believe that you buy in France should know than the one sold in Bogotá.
In conclusion, it was an interesting exercise in the sense that I had to drink as "a bit of it, a little of that", the domestic and imported water to begin to feel the difference that each one of them, and it's complicated notice some flavor of something that is in very small proportions.
