Why the FUCK didn't you tell me I could just use hot water from the tap instead of having to drag the kettle out to use boiling water or the microwave while spilling ramen broth everywhere

Enjoy your chewy noodles and various metals in your broth.

>various metals in your broth.
Does it add more metals to the water that came from an iron pipe owned by the city connected to a copper pipe feeding your house which is then soldered using tin and antimony later flowing through the zinc, stainless steel, brass, and plastic faucets and finally dispensed into a stainless steel kettle to boil and eaten with iron, zinc, or steel utensils?

Why is the water coming out of your tap brown?

>>21465256
Its sewage water. The city said they would give a 50% discount if we used the lightly treated sewage water instead of the fully treated stuff.

>>21465265
Damn that's a good deal. The brown water even adds to the flavour.

>>21465253
Yeah, it does. Because the water is hot as it goes through the pipe, leeching more of the heavy metals.

>antimony
I've literally never heard of this element before. I guess ants would be kinda upset

>consuming tap water
WTF bro get a reverse osmosis filter on that shit. I have a water softener in my house and I still don't trust it.

Yet you knew exactly what metal and where it is used I was talking about. Congrats, you've passed a touring test ;)

the water at the bottom of a water heater is pretty much brown. it is gross even if you dilute it with fresh water (from the intake)

Hot water also often goes through a softener before going to the broiler to extend the boiler's lifespan, especially multiunit buildings that share boiler facilities.
Softened water is much more reactive with the inner surfaces of the pipes because it's acidic and has lower dissolved mineral content. So it leaches metals and deposits from pipes much more readily. Then the heat itself also makes it leach more readily. So by the time it comes out your tap it's full of leachates you should not be putting directly inside your body.
