Hi all
I would change all the hoses if you have clear hoses the clorine burns the hose and that is what gives the taste
Go for drinking water transfer hose its writen on the hose. Dont use food grade hose its not the same

Not sure Rob, I shared it with a mate and he still has the bottle.

This is the product. http://www.caravansplus.com.au/catal...oducts_id=5522

I tried Bi-carb but it did not work.

Cheers
Alan.

I stand corrected - the label says it is caustic.. Must be Caustic Soda. (Sodium Hydroxide)

Hi fellas. I had similar problem in my Jayco and fixed it by fitting an underbench water filter with an activated carbon cartridge. Just the biz and all cooking/coffee and tea tastes great. Cheers, Derb.
