For some reason the water always starts foaming up a little bit when it’s from a microwave instead of a normal kettle. I don’t know why or what the difference is, but I prefer non-foamy water.
Water foaming when heated is caused by impurities in the water rather than the heating mechanism. So whatever is causing your water to foam is in it either way
I’ve had microwaved water for tea a few times.

And yet I never see it when I use a kettle.
And we all know what science says: if you can’t see something, it isn’t there!
Hahaha good point. 😄
Ah well, I have a decent kettle now, I don’t have to use my microwave anymore to make hot water, so I’ll continue to use that.
It’s because the microwave gets the water a bit hotter than boiling. Just give it like 15 seconds and it shouldn’t foam.
