Potable water

I was flying as a paid pax on a long haul flight with an known international airline.
I asked for a cup of water and was offered straight from the boiler tap in the galley.
I didn't drink it as it is directly from the potable water.

During the meal, water was served from a metal pot............. So, I asked for orange juice.

Is it normal for an airline to serve water from the galley tap or just to save money???

Not being sarcastic, eating salad from certain countries washed with local water would give diarrhea. So, tummy pain after the flt is no more a concern for an airline.
