Hmm,
  The Walmart brand distilled water I have gotten (Rock Springs, WY)
has no info whatsoever on the bottle about who/where it was bottled.
It has the Walmart brand label and nothing else. All other brands have
some info printed on the bottle as to time of production, date, plant
# etc, but not the Walmart brand.
   There is something (?) in some of the distilled water brands I can
get (including Walmart and Arrowhead) which makes my CS come out
yellowish even if the DW tests very low (.2 or .3 uS) on the PWT. The
Walmart water is ok sometimes, and sometimes not, and the uS reading
doesn't always correlate with whether my CS comes out clear or
colored.
   After being opened some bottles of DW have increased uS readings
after a few days, and some have lowered. I have finally found one
brand of DW that gives me the most consistent results, but it has also
given CS with slight straw color. Believe it or not, I also made CS at
full moon, etc, to test the idea that CS made then is more likely to
show color, but that turned out not to be true.
  Whatever is going on with the DW here, it is more than I have the
time and $$$ to figure out. As long as my CS is clear or very, very
pale straw color, I consume it. Very yellow stuff is used for plants,
cat water, wiping counters and cutting boards, etc.
  I had been planning to buy a home distiller (counter top unit) but
after hearing from the person whose tap water pegged the PWT and was
not pure enough for CS making even after being distilled twice, I'm
not sure if it would work---my tap water pegs the meter too, and still
does so after being run through two filters (faucet and Brita).
