Use Good Water

“Don't overlook what kind of water you're using. A cup of coffee is around 98% water, so what kind we're using is important. For consistency, use filtered water––that way, the water doesn't impart any additional flavors or mouthfeel. I use a filter I can fill from the tap at home, and make sure I replace the filters every few months. If you're heating up water from the stove, heat it up to a boil and then wait 45 seconds before you begin pouring.”
