In the US, the EPA has legally enforceable standards for all different types of pollutants in your drinking water, as well as secondary concerns that may cause skin irritation or affect your hair. Your local water supplier should produce a new Consumer Confidence Report each year, and the EPA has a public database to easily look up the most recent report for your area. You can read the report and check if there are any worrisome pollutant levels in your water, but you can also rest safe in the knowledge that if any contaminants are over their legal limit, your area will certainly be notified.

Hario ceramic coffee dripper
Amazon This Japanese pour over dripper can be used with your mug for a single serving or placed above a large carafe for a big batch of several mugs of coffee if you've got company (or it's just one of those mornings).

Are there toxic metals in your household water?
I hope I haven't scared you into never touching your household water again. Many countries, including the United States, have a comprehensive set of guidelines to make sure that the harmful chemicals in your water are being examined and regulated. 

Of course, you can also drop as little as $100, if you're willing to settle for a mediocre espresso, but I urge you not to pounce on products that cost less, especially if you plan on drinking espresso regularly. They may seem like a bargain at first blush, but they're often a waste of money and counter space, too. 

Cold brew coffee kit
Amazon This cold brew coffee kit with a Mason jar and stainless steel fine-mesh filter can take you there. The slower process unlocks milder, smoother coffee flavors, leaving you to add milk or sugar to your drink only if you're looking for some extra indulgence.

Andrew Hoyle/CNET I spotted this boat by chance as I was driving around another loch. I shot this image in raw format and slightly underexposed it in order to capture the drama of the clouds overhead. I then used an adjustment brush in Lightroom to selectively brighten up just the boat so it stands out more in the frame. 

Andrew Hoyle/CNET The rig I used to get the shot. I used a Manfrotto suction cup with a Magic Arm to attach the phone to the car. A standard smartphone clamp held the phone securely in place. I'd also bought a strong cord to tether the rig to the rear wiper -- a precaution so that when even if the suction mount fell off, the rig wouldn't fall into the road, destroying both the phone and potentially damaging the McLaren.

$95 at Larq Best self-cleaning water bottle for indoors only
Mahaton
Amanda Capritto/CNET The Mahaton self-cleaning water bottle (available for preorder for $44) features one purification cycle that eliminates up to 99.99% of waterborne pathogens. After three days of near-constant use, the bottle didn't show any signs of build-up -- no weird smells, no crusty films. 

Andrew Hoyle/CNET I set out to see whether a phone camera can capture a journey like this as well as my DSLR could have and I genuinely think it's a close-run thing. I was seriously impressed with the images I shot with the iPhone and there were many images that I couldn't tell whether they were taken with the phone or the professional camera. That's not something I'd imagine saying even a year ago.

The most dangerous amounts of lead accumulate when the water has been sitting in your home's pipes overnight, so if you flush that immediate water out, you'll be in better shape.

$45 at Amazon Bonus! The Flow stainless steel water bottle
Our functional water bottle pick
the flow This water bottle was designed for the indecisive drinker. The stainless steel bottle from The Flow is toxin-free and insulated with a grippy rubber finish, and it comes with three different cap options. Choose from a straw lid, flip lid or carabiner (screw-top) lid, depending on what your day calls for and what beverage you're drinking (hot drinks like coffee go nicely with the flip lid).

Getty Images Another main issue is connected to the chlorine that's used as a disinfectant in our drinking water. The major health concern is actually the byproducts that are created when chlorine reacts with natural organic matter in the water, creating harmful chemicals called THMs. You've probably heard of chloroform, which is just one common THM, and high levels of THMs act as a carcinogen.
