Is there a nasty after taste?

Immediately after taking these, youll have a kind of a mocha taste if you will. But definitely not a lasting aftertaste. These worked a miracle on me in my opinion. My wife and I were having unprotected sex for 2 years with no luck. We planned every month to try and conceive during ovulation. It wasn't until I started taking these, that we had a positive result. Hope this helps.

Nothing that I noticed or that bothered me. Wash before first use. I imagine any unusual taste would be gone after a few washes.

I put a scoop in some water and take it. First order of this stuff was bearable/not bad. But the second (last so far) order... I always have to think of the smell of old urinals, since that's what it tastes like. Absolutely disgusting!

There is a very slightly smell but since it absorbs into your bloodstream can be an ordor and in my case a taste after use

I don't think so, but taste is such a personal thing. I've read where some people feel there is an aftertaste but they get used to it. I really like it for certain recipes and I tend to only use it for those recipes since it is more expensive. I use my erythritol, xylitol and stevia most often.

As long as you do it right with step one and two of the purification then no! It will taste like water out of your fridge.

Not at all. Stevia, unlike Aspartame and other sugar substitutes, does not have an after taste.

A funny taste would indicate that some bacteria remains. Have you tried running it through the dishwasher? They also have brushes availableBest to rinse after use. Hope this helps.

The bad taste is only if you did not follow the directions and purge the system correctly. If you are a manly man like myself this may be an issue. If you follow the directions and don't do what so many of us do then the water is amazing.... Truly... I have had mine now for 3 years without an issue. Several bypassed the UV because it was heating the water when it sat in the system for a long time. The newer system and the sensor they were nice enough to send to previous customers, has fixed it from heating the water because it now turns on and off. This makes it an on demand type of thing.

No I have not notice a sweet taste after filtering my water. Look at from this angle, it is far better having sweet water than having to drink water that has the rotten egg smell/taste. If you are really that concerned about the sweet taste of the water call up or email Sawyer and get their official say on the matter or send a water sample to a public water testing facility and see what they determine is in the water that you are filtering. That's about all I can say on the matter. Good Luck.

No noticable after taste. We usually take it following meals, but still no after taste.

Mine is OK as long as you drink it black. I like how it still tastes good after an hour or more. But, you have to nuke it to get it not enough after that amount of time. I wouldn't buy another one.

I personally do not taste a bad after taste. I believe does have some kind of sugar substitute but doesn't seem to leave an aftertaste like aspartame does.

I've not noticed any odor or after taste on my mess kit. I've used it for basic hygiene and haven't notice any ill after affect. Bottom line; if you're in bear country; use a bear bag. I use one regardless. Keeps the coons and mice outta my stuff too.

I don't know for sure I couldn't try anything else after the taste was so bad. It is. Bit expensive to throw away if you can't get past the taste

Before a meal, about 10 to fifteen minutes, with water. You are going to need that time to get the vile taste out of your mouth. It is really pungent and awful. You could take it after but you might taste your meal again.

You can drink water right after. I'd just avoid drinking anything else that might stain for a few hours.
