RE: CS>Best distilled water available in NW?
Hi Susie, I live in Snohomish & have found that the best quality DW I can find is still at Fred Meyer. I've had good luck with DW from both the Bellevue/Redmond store & and the 2 in South Everett/Lynnwood.

Re: CS>Best distilled water available in NW?
Thank you Garnet, That helps a lot. I will get the Kleenex tissues, more convenient too. Right now finances are down the drain but thank you for that link for distilled water! BTW, I live in Snohomish, WA (so thankful to be hurricane free) Susie ///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.

Re: CS>Best distilled water available in NW?
Hi Susie, Where in WA do you live? Can't help with the rest:( Craig Since getting my generator I have made about 4 quarts CS. I have 2 different brands of true DW. One that I made a batch from yesterday and today. Yesterdays batch I transferred into a amber glass bottle that a friend had sent me (her home brewed CS) and I have had previous batches of my CS in it. Anyway, I am adding drops of H202 after brewing. This one turned and stayed somewhat milky. The one I just brewed today had quite a few floaty stuff in it, I didn't wipe the electrodes with this batch and when I added the H202, it turned yellow. I didn't strain the batch as it doesn't bother me and I don't have anything sterile to filter it with. I am assuming all this is normal and ok? I try to only touch the electrodes with paper towels and not fingers and clean with distilled water and rinse the jar with DW. So I don't think things are contaminated??? Anyway..I live in Washington state. Anyone know of a quality distilled water? I don't have a clue if the 2 different brands that I have used were "good" or not.

Re: CS>Best distilled water
Or just 2-6 area regional. Is Wallgreens in Seattle made in PA? Montana? A person who lives North of Chicago had to go to a different chain store to get decent water.

Re: CS>Best distilled water
Thanks for the tip Richard; I just got some Walgreen's DW at 99 cents and it tested .3 on my PWT. I saved .1 over the Zephyrhills at .4 and 30 cents to boot! I haven't calibrated my PWT since I got it about 8 months ago.

RE: CS>Best distilled water ?
The CO2 from the air makes it acidic. O2 gets in too, but I am not sure what effect that has. If it is water in the 0.0 to 5 ppm range or the water is conductivity adjusted before making the CS it is usually not of practical concern.

Re: CS>Best distilled water
It doesn't pay to ship water around at 67 cents to $1.50 a gallon retail. It's all locally distilled regardless of brand. Some brands practice better oversight on the local distillers. In some places, the same distiller makes all the brands. ode At 04:09 PM 5/11/2004 -0400, you wrote: >I use Zephyrhills brand DW, $1.39 gal, from Winn-Dixie (local grocery >store).

My meter reads to 0.1. I have never tested anything better than Arrowhead. Some batches read 0.0. Too pure can result in low yield.
