Thanks for the all comments regarding the distiller. I dont feel so foolish about it now. I read on silvergen website that they recommend taking out the filter and doing a double distilling session. I think its because the filters leave a residue. Any thoughts about that?
Beth I became discouraged with DW from the markets as it was not consistent.I ended up buying a fairly expensive distiller and have not regretted it.In 8 years it has more than paid for itself as I also use the DW for all my drinking and cooking as our tap water is highly chlorinated.Even having filters in the system,a primary and then a secondary,the water still does not taste good.The DW for potable is treated with Concentrace minerals to bring it up to the proper pH . For EIS brewing I draw off the tap water in 1 gallon pails and let sit for approx. 24 hrs to let the chlorine work out. Harold
