Would also suggest temperature of the water would be something worth considering. Does it come out a few degrees below boiling from the work tap? And are you pouring off the kettle or letting it cool at home? And if so by how long?
CYOA-
The filtered tap will likely be effective at softeneing the water and removing unwanted temporary hardness cleaning up the taste.
We use BWT filters at work, and I got one of their home jugs for about £30. Really cleans up the regular tap water which then goes in my kettle, makes my coffee taste much better than before.

when i make an aeropress at work it always tastes much better than at home - same coffees, same hand grinder, same fairly random quantities and process. work use the "filtered hot water taps" (hot, cold and fizzy water from the same unit), so im guessing thats making the difference when compared to tap water at home
likely?
if so, whats the forum recommended water filter?
