Madison
Company lives
and breathes
sensors, so of
course we get
a kick out of
fun facts
about sensor
applications
as well. See
if you can
guess where a
sensor is used
after you read
this Fantastic
Fun Fact!
(Pssst:
You'll find
the answer in
parentheses
below!)
There are
hundreds of
bottled water
brands out
there, all
claiming to be
the best. The
most natural.
The purest.
But it's
all just water,
right? Shouldn't
it basically
taste the same?
Apparently
not, according
to some 100
mineral water
sommeliers, who
make a living
tasting various
waters and
pairing them
with different
foods. Water
actually has
taste, based on
its origin and
the minerals and
other components
that are picked
up on its
journey to the
bottle.
Cooks
Illustrated says
that calcium
makes water
taste milky and
smooth;
magnesium can be
bitter; sodium
makes it taste
salty; and bits
of decomposing
plant matter
impart an
earthy, organic
taste. In fact,
certain culinary
traditions are
based largely on
the taste of the
local water -
for example, New
Yorkers claim
that the water
is what makes NY
pizza and bagels
taste amazing,
and Kentucky's
limestone-filtered
water is perfect
for making
bourbon.
Who knew?
We think we'll
inspect the
ingredients on
our next bottle
of water before
we drink it!
(So
where is the
sensor? Many
bottling
plants use
sensors in
their filling
machines!)
