Okay, sometimes it’s not just bubbles. If your water is murky and stays cloudy for a minute or more, that’s different.
That could be sediment. Rust. Dirt. You might have a pipe leaking something gross. But honestly? That’s rare.
99% of the time, you’re just drinking tiny air bubbles. Your tap is a micro-bubble factory. Congrats, you own a fizzy water plant for free.
How to Test It for Laughs
Own a coffee mug? Fill it with cloudy water. Put it in the fridge. Check it in five minutes.
The bubbles will settle. The water will be crystal clear. You’ll feel like a mad scientist with a very boring experiment.
Or, if you want to be dramatic, hold a flashlight behind the glass. The bubbles scatter the light. It looks like a milky galaxy in your kitchen.
