A “crunchy” compound that was discovered at the end of a frying pan after a West Aussie steamed 3 litres of faucet water has actually left numerous scraping their heads– and some individuals’s belly churning.
Posting to social media sites today, the WA neighborhood published an image of the unusual compound which they stated they observed was remaining after steaming a couple of litres of water. “I boiled away about three litres of Perth tap water, and this is what was left. What is it?” they asked online.
In the pictures, a brownish, rough glob can be seen that practically appears like smashed tree bark. Speaking to Yahoo News Australia, water specialist and teacher at the University of Western Sydney, Ian Wright, lost some light on what the mass most more than likely is, after individuals on-line shared the poster’s complication.
“I’m a chef and have boiled Perth water thousands of times. Never seen residue like this,” someone stated. “That looks particularly excessive for three litres,” stated an additional. “I’ve always used a water filter since moving to Perth from the country where we always drank rain water. Can’t stand the taste of tap water,” an additional created.
“Perth water is undrinkable. Maybe you are used to it and don’t notice — it is absolutely disgusting for tourists and bathrooms smell like public pools,” a 4th individual stated.

Eventually, Wright established the document directly. “Wow! [It’s] salt! But not necessarily sodium chloride table salt,” he informed Yahoo News.
“Perth has the saltiest capital city water. But this varies according to different supply districts… The Mount Yokine supply had the saltiest water, based on available data, for any Australian capital city.”
While the solution could appear basic sufficient, Wright, a previous worker of Sydney Water, stated individuals need to watch out for especially salted faucet water. “Australians all have too much salt in our diet and water usually only provides a little, but it adds to salt burden and people with kidney disease need to be very careful about salt intake,” he advised.
“And it lifts blood pressure. So I’d say can have health effects, but in combination with salt in whole diet.”
