I am a tea drinker. I use a glass kettle. I never had a problem with the taste of TV water, so I used tap water in my kettle. Well, after a short time, i noticed a white substance inside the kettle. In the bottom and on the spout. It was a hard white substance, I tried everything to clean the kettle. Vinegar, baking soda....nothing worked. My neighbor had the same problem. I got a new kettle and use a Brita filter. No more problem.I don't know what the white substance is, but I don't want to ingest it either.
