Does distilled water take some flavor from the plastic container it is put into?
I got my water distiller delivered this morning. It doesn't have any carbon filters like some models do(I got the really cheap one).
It heats the water into steam, which then goes over and condenses back into water and falls into a plastic container than came with it.
I'm thinking maybe I can add in some lemonade mix or something to cover up the unbelievably nasty taste.
I found this webpage http://www.durastill.com/myths.html and MYTH 4 is about unbelievably nasty taste, which is the symptom I am having.
Anyone know anything about these toxic gasses which are somehow responsible for the unbelievably nasty taste(or UNT as it is known to scankologist)?
Without using a carbon filter... shouldn't they just rise up and go off somewhere? I'm thinking it might be the plastic giving it that funk taste, since water bonds with anything apparently.
Can I get casein or anything else that might be bad from the plastic? Caseins are the bad thing in dairy products, and are apparently used in making plastics.
