Here’s what I’ve quit drinking
Sunday, July 13th, 2008I am now drinking distilled water, and I just had to share this: when I finish distilling a gallon of water, there are a few teaspoons left in the bottom of the distiller tank, and I kid you not, it’s the color of weak tea.
Bleh! What is that stuff? I have no idea. Mind you, I’m starting with water that has already run through a decent countertop filter.
Here’s a pic of my distiller. I bought it from EcoPure. It cost $100 plus shipping, distills a gallon at a time. Distilling into a plastic container isn’t ideal but they say they’re working to develop a glass one; I’ll upgrade to it when they do. The water comes out tepid; I decant into glass jugs and refrigerate as soon as it’s done.
The water, incidentally, tastes fantastic. I always assumed distilled water would taste flat, but this sure doesn’t. It tastes marvelous.
