You should bottle the brown water, send it back to them, and ask for a refund on the basis "not as advertised".
Or at least bill them for a "manual end-point filtration fee", plus a fixed admin fee of course

Got up at 05:30 this morning, and went to make
No water.
Burst water mains at 03:52 apparently. Quote: "We anticipate that water supplies should begin returning to normal by later this morning."
"later this morning"?
No coffee.
Seriously. NO COFFEE
Expect a cranky OG today - I've just been to the supermarket for bottled water, but it's not going to be the same ... NO COFFEE ... help. Feeling sleepy ...
(I may be overreacting a touch, but ... NO COFFEE).

Have you considered to boil some of the water from the bottle for your coffee?

Bottled water. Always keep a stash of bottled water. I learnt it the hard way (3 days with no water).

I do - but it's ten years old (or so) and I didn't think it would be good to drink (not that water goes off, but after that time in a warm kitchen gawd knows what's been breeding in there / leaching out of the plastic. It'll do for flushing, but ...)

I keep them in a dark cool place and regularly cycle them out, excactly for the reason you wrote (drinking from a bottle left in a truck for umpteen years has not been my most pleasant experience).

Just check, the storage method as I know from working in the water industry can cause the water to 'go off'...

I know, I worked on Food&Beverage for a lot of time, and I'm also properly paranoid.

No ice-cubes in the freezer? Throw them in the microwave, and make some coffee.
In the worst case you'd have to boil milk to make some filtered coffee.
