You're right there. I've been buying it on sale,
when I can find it. And water purified by RO and
ozonation when I can't get DW. Last I bought was 6
cases of 24 bottles because it was BOGO And was
cheaper per gallon when I worked out the math.
It worked out to 8 or 9 dollars. I need something
to make my own supply, I may have to buy 2
ditillers, run simultaneously, to get enough water
every day for everyone, since most distillers only
produce 1 gallon every 4 - 5 hours:) I'm basing
that on approx 1 gallon per person per day, and
cooking purposes, plus CS.

But is RO water good enough for CS?
I don't think it is, but distilling RO water is supposed to make
extremely pure distilled water. And I think Ode told me once he knew of
a couple of people who had to do that to get decent DW (correct me if I
am wrong).
Since I also drink DW and use it for coffee and tea, and for cooking (if
I have enough), my still ran nearly daily, at least one gallon and often
two. If my husband drank DW it would have had to produce much more, he
drinks double filtered tap water. I do use around a gallon to a gallon
and a half of CS per week.
When I figured up how much DW we'd need to purchase per week to replace
what I was distilling at home, it came to about 10 gallons. I can't
imagine doing that for 6 people and an infant. The 10 gallons a week
here is for me to drink and for making CS for my two cats, my husband
and myself (and neither of us actually drinks CS routinely though we do
use it for mouthwash and lots of other uses, including, misting eyes and
hands and cleaning around the kitchen, etc). I also wipe down most
bottles and food containers that come from the store and go right into
the refrigerator. The cats DO drink straight CS, and go through quite a
lot.
It seems to me that 10 gallons per week is about the maximum practical
to haul home from the store.
