Ozone that hasn't oxidized organic contaminants out gasses from water pretty fast. If the water is really fresh and over ozonated, it will oxidize silver ions resulting in a brown brew. All commercial distilled water is ozonated so far as I have seen. [Maybe by law]
That's done to sterilize the water without contaminating it.

If ozone is suspect, leave the water jug loosely capped for a few days. Bubbles will form on the sides of the container and will pop and vent when the water leaves. Or heat the water to near boiling in an open container. The vapor pressure of ozone is much lower than that of water.
..very rare problem.

I read at http://www.biophysica.com/instructions.htm that one should use non-ozonized distilled water for making colloidal silver. I assume this means the same thing as ozonated. One brand at the grocery store and Walgreen's brand are ozonated. What is the harm in that?
