I found that using Kleenex brand tissue, others may work differently I don't know, is better than using paper towels. The paper towels shed more and I had more yellow batches. With the Kleenex there is no shedding and no yellow batches.
On the distilled water why not buy a counter top distiller and make your own. It is nice not to have to carry bottled water. I bought a unit for $99 from www.wholesalewaterdistillers.com . It is often sold for $200 - $349, I have seen it many times for these prices. So this site is truly wholesale. I have hard water, 42, so not as bad as some. I simply wipe it out after each batch and soak it in vinegar and water over night every 6 or 7th batch, when the mineral deposits that won't wipe out get to be the size of a quarter on the bottom of the vessel. My SG6 never registers any conductance with my home made distilled water. I figure it has just about paid for itself in 8 months.
