Taste or Odor

and odor problems

possible to remove all minerals, odor, or taste in all water
supplies.

Discard the first few batches of ice to avoid discolored or
bad tasting ice.
Ice has been stored for too
long.
Ice that has been stored for too long will shrink, become
cloudy, and develop a stale taste. Throw away old ice and
make a new supply.

is not wrapped properly.
