Water for Coffee Experiment. In Search Of:
Update. Nope. A bad idea. I am saving it to post jokingly on April 1. It was not good.
I am pretty far along in my pour over coffee knowledge of techniques and methods. And I mineralize my distilled water for coffee extraction. As a fallback, we, here in Houston, can also do a 50/50 distilled water/filtered Houston tap water to produce acceptable water for coffee extraction. As I was draining spaghetti today, thinking about how useful the spaghetti water with its remaining starch is, culinary-wise, I started ruminating about extracting coffee with pasta water and what the starch content would do to the final extraction. I wanted to throw this out there to hear if anyone has played around with starchy water for coffee. What do you say?
