The taste of water
We have all studied at school that water is colorless, odorless and tasteless. But in reality we all also have the experience that there are better waters than others. What determines the taste of water? To find out we will make a simple scientific study. We will sample waters from different origins and we will test them to assess their organoleptic properties. Then we will compare them with the corresponding chemical analyzes. Identified the components that give it the best flavor, we will make the perfect water.
