It's more cost effective to buy the DW but double distillation is the way to go if you want the best. We recommend that persons outside the U.S. having difficulty obtaining DW purchase a distiller and if they have poor quality end product, follow the steps outlined.

Yes and that means that I use 1.5 gallons of water and it
yeilds only .5 gallons after 6-8 hours of distilling.

I distilled first batch last night it read 2.8 while still
warm however it read .7 this morning after it cooled and sat
a while.

I will continue to test the batches as they come out and as the
distiller gets older it might change.
I am on a water system which is not potable. (like being in a cottage)
All of our drinking/cooking water
is bought so it becomes quite a waste when I start tossing out
a gallon of water each time.

If it was just coming out of the tap I probably would not mind as much.
1.5 gallons of water and 6-8 hours power for 1/2 gallon also seem like a lot of waste.
However I do understand that making the CS is what comes out cheaper
in the end no matter what I do.  :)

I just dont understand how the temperature would make such a difference
in the reading. 2.8 down to .7 is quite a difference. The PWT is suppose
to take temp into consideration.

1. Remove the carbon discharge filter.
It makes the water conductive.

2. Fill the boiling chamber no more than 3/4
full.

3. Distill only 1/2 gallon into the receiver.

4. Discard the remainder in the boiling
chamber.

5. Repeat steps 2,3 and 4. You now have
one gallon in the receiver.

6. Put 3/4 gallon of this water in the boiling
chamber.

7. Distill only 1/2 gallon into the receiver.

You now have what is called double distilled water.

Allow to cool and try to use it. It should measure
less than 1 microsiemen
using a PWT meter..
