Hot water dissolves lead more quickly than cold water and is therefore more likely to contain greater amounts of lead. Never use water from the hot water tap for drinking, cooking, or making baby formula.

No lead pipes. 70C water temp against legionella. Yearly water quality tests in all public buildings. Drinkable tap water by law in any rental property. Europe <3
Even without lead pipes, if you have an electric water heater, the sacrificial anode rod leaches all sorts of shit. Seriously, just use cool water in a kettle. Mine usually takes less time than my pipes do to warm up when washing dishes.
I’m in Europe too and it’s not recommended that you drink hot tap water. It’s just the possibility of stuff in it.
