Why does my home roasted coffee have such a strong acid taste in purified water but tastes great in tap water?

Question by Swajo: Why does my home roasted coffee have such a strong acid taste in purified water but tastes great in tap water?
I roast my own coffee beans. I also get purified water at a water store. The strange thing is that my fresh roasted coffee tastes great made with my tap water which is not purified or filtered, but made with the purified water it tastes so acidy that we can't drink it. I have tried green bean coffee blends from two different companies..........with the same result. I want to use purified water, but I don't like the coffee flavor I end up with. Any coffee experts out there that can help me? Any referals to a good Green Coffee Bean that produces a good coffee flavor when used with purified water? :)

The chlorine in tap water is alkaline. It neutralizes the acid in coffee.
