Why does my Brita UltraMax taste weird?

If your Brita UltraMax water tastes weird, it could be due to old filters or the water source. Expired or clogged filters can affect the taste and odor of the water, so they need to be replaced regularly. Additionally, sometimes water can pick up flavors from the plastic of the dispenser, especially if it has been sitting for a while. For example, if you haven't changed your filter in a while, the water may taste metallic or have an odd aftertaste. Pro Tip: Always replace the filter as indicated by the dispenser’s filter change light to avoid unpleasant tastes. Consider this product if you live in an area with strong water flavor, as it may not eliminate all tastes effectively.
