Let’s get one thing straight: hard water isn’t evil, it’s just lazy. It’s loaded with calcium and magnesium that refuse to leave you alone. When you boil it, those minerals throw a party and form scale—a mineral suit of armor on your heating elements. Your poor kettle is secretly working out, trying to boil through a limestone wall.
Distillation fights back with pure, glorious heat. It boils the water, turns it into steam, and leaves the rock minerals behind like a bad date at a bus station. Then it cools the steam back into liquid that’s so pure it’s almost boring. Boring water is good water. It means zero scale, zero aftertaste, and zero guilt about pouring it into your expensive espresso machine.
