    Countertop water filtration?

    My water tastes bad. Lord knows what else is going on, I don't want to know. Now that I've replaced beer with water, I need to fix that, at least in the kitchen. Anybody address this problem? I suppose I could rig a filtration system under the sink, but looking for something easier on the counter. No room for a standing cooler.

    I'd suggest something, but you're such a boorish dick I think engaging with you is a waste of my good time.

    hahaha

    I have some thoughts as I've been looking into this question myself. But I'll follow Buster's lead and keep my counsel. Try google.

    Just put a Brita pitcher in the fridge. The filter will remove some taste, letting it sit will allow some taste "evaporate", and having it cold will mask some other tastes.

    Seems perfect for Bunny.

    Maybe add a catheter for 24/7 portability potability.

    My first solution would be to just put a pitcher of water on the counter before bed and see if it tastes better in the morning. This is very effective for residual chlorine taste/smell. If that doesn't work, get the Brita.

    Maybe the Town of Greenwich is flushing the mains and just sent some of the nasty stuff over to Westchester for a while?

    Aquasana inline tap filter. Been using them for 10 years. I think they're great.

    Used to use an RO under sink but now have 10 stage on counter filter along with filter on shower. You want to filter all or most of the Flouride.
