Don't think it's the well because the bathroom sink doesn't smell like dirt, just the kitchen. Soaked the faucet head in vinegar for 5 min and it still smells. It's harmless since the water tastes fine and doesn't leave a smell on dishware but it's just weird. Anyone know what might be up? Google says it could be an algae bloom in the well itself.

    Sorry I mean, if you take a glass of water from the kitchen faucet and move it to another room, does the smell remain?

    It might be that the drain has a dirt smell that doesn't become apparent until water is flowing is my thought.

      Just tested it, the water didn't smell and I didn't smell anything in the drain, but the faucet has a faint earthy smell
