will it be good enough?
what about you and pure water?

Distillers can be a gamble. I have heard of the cheap ones not distilling water to sufficient purity to make good CS, and I have also heard of $400 distillers that also did not do a good enough job and had to be sent back.

My distiller (the cheapest one available) did a very good job for around 6 years, but just died. We are going to go with purchased DW for a while and see if it is better than it was back when I bought the still. I can do that, because I own a Hanna PWT water test meter............I think that is a good first step if you can afford a good meter such as the Hanna PWT or the COM-100, because if you have never made your own CS before you can't know how pure you need the distilled water to be. Where I live, it needs to be .2uS to .3 uS (considerably lower than a TDS meter can read) for reliably clear CS making. However, most places people can use distilled water up to 3.0 uS and still get clear CS.
