That is 5 microsiemens, a measure of conductivity. >How is the water tested and can you tell if the water is bad by >the taste? CS enthusiasts commonly use a $50 Hanna PWT tester to measure the conductivity of distilled water and finished CS. >I have a some water that has a "plasticky" >taste to it and want to know if it is safe to use. I don't know to what degree plasticky tasting water is unsafe, but who wants to drink water that tastes plasticky? My advice is to dump it and switch to a better brand. Or, better yet, get your own distiller so that your DW doesn't have a chance to sit around picking up disagreeable flavors. -- John A.
