Re: CSX PPM to start process
Uh...no. [well, better than no water at all.] If that were the end result, sure. Even when a TDS meter read zero, assuming it reads properly, the water can be marginal. But water that reads 2 or even 3 can generally be used, depending on *what* makes it a 2 or 3. ..subtract that from the end result and double that number for silver content. Distiller tips: 1] Carbon Pre-filter source water , remove any post filters. 2] Don't fill up the boiling chamber all the way..to prevent boil over into the condenser...if there is any way to slow it down, slow it down...ideally, the water shouldn't boil, just vaporize. 3] Discard the first bit that comes out to get rid of any volatiles the carbon pre-filter may have missed If it doesn't measure up, return it to the distiller and re-start at #2 ..and don't let the distiller run dry as that will encrust it with minerals that can be tough to remove...discard that last bit and rinse. Periodically apply acid to clean the camber and condenser of mineral deposits.

Re: CSX PPM to start process
Thanks to all for the great suggestions. I did remove the cal/mag cartridge. The first distiller brew was 1PPM and gradually got worse. Its automatic and I let it run dry each time. This points my to Ode's post. I will scrub mineral deposits and interrupt cycle before completion.

CSX PPM to start process
I bought a water distiller and TDS meter. After distilling the water it reads 5 PPM. Is this good enough to make CS?

Re: CSX PPM to start process
You could run it through the distiller again, to see if it gets any better. Wouldn't kill you but not ideal. On Nov 6, 2009, at 9:19 AM, Max Schanfarber wrote: I bought a water distiller and TDS meter. After distilling the water it reads 5 PPM. Is this good enough to make CS? Thanks, Maxi
Re: CSX PPM to start process
Is this just the ordinary TDS meter not a COM-100? I have the ordinary one and mine reads 000 dee On 6 Nov 2009, at 15:19, Max Schanfarber wrote: I bought a water distiller and TDS meter.

Re: CSX PPM to start process
Are you by any chance using the charcoal post filter that comes with some of the one gallon distillers? If that it couls be the reason.

Re: CSX PPM to start process
It's pretty near OK. My personal limit is 4 or less... Try double distilling and see what you get. Chuck If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme stuff, why didn't he just buy dinner?
