If for any other reason the only way a microwave could possibly change the taste of water is to dehydrate the unpurified water's components from the other elements and or foreign particles and or impurities already suspended in the solution. Boiling the water will make this mixture more concentrated thus possibly giving it a slightly different taste. However, I seriously would like to see a study that actually identifies if an electrically heated, microwave heated or kettle heated water would make such a difference to the taste that a human palate could actually differentiate the parameters and decipher as being off-tasting. (Of all the things I would seriously like to see... This one is maybe not too high on the list...)
Heated water is just that, and not much more.
Good luck!
PS: If you are using the heated water to make tea, just don't steep you tea in the mug in the microwave. Also, as you put your tea in the mug, don't look down into a mug right out of the microwave in the way off-chance the water is super-heated. Also, try a little brown sugar and cream with heaver teas. Delectable!

∙ 13y agoEh, it doesn't make it terrible, but it makes it kinda'....flat. I did it myself until I learned you could make it in a coffee machine just as quickly by putting the bags in the coffee filter holder, and have it taste just as good as normal tea xP

Does a plant grow better in microwaved water or purified water?
No, microwaved water will not effect the plant, but be sure to follow the directions or look it up in a botany for that specific plant. You should never microwave water alone, this has a chance of superheating of the water, which will cause the temperature of the water to rise above it's boiling point.
