My Brita water tastes funny, why?

If your Brita water tastes funny, it could be due to a stale filter or bacterial growth in the dispenser. Filters can become saturated over time, and if not replaced regularly, they can start to impart odd flavors to the water. Additionally, if the dispenser is not cleaned frequently, any leftover water can become a breeding ground for bacteria. To rectify this, check the filter's expiration date and replace it if it’s due. An example would be if you notice a metallic taste, this might indicate that the filter is no longer effective. PRO TIP: Store your Brita dispenser in a cool place and clean it regularly to avoid this issue. CONSIDERATION: If you’re using water from a questionable source, consider testing your tap water quality.
