LMSC True! Why bother if it tastes good. No wonder, the super taster Dave doesn’t see the WDT adding anything to the cup!
Subjective, taste is. The point here is, if you can’t tell the difference, that’s the important part. Whether Dave can taste or can’t taste, that’s for him to appraise and enjoy. Whether he thinks WDT alter the taste for him or not, that’s for his own benefit. Others may beg to differ, because they can taste the difference, or they think WDT is valuable. Maybe there are hyper tasters out there. I don’t know.
As for me, I use a bottomless, and I find that if I don’t WDT, there are spritzers all over the show which makes my machine and trolley top messy. So, I have incorporated that as part of my technique. IMMV.
Bottom line is, if you think WDT is irrelevant for your routine and provides no benefits…. I’d question why you bother doing it in the first place. 😊
