Our tap water isn’t great. Also want a completely zero-plastic solution. What do you do for your water?

    I just boil it, & let it cool.

    Gets minerals, chlorine, all sorts of stuff out.


    If you’ve got someone excessively-fragile, with some medical-condition that makes 'em that way, use Zero Water filters: they are costly, damn-thorough, and amazing, when you can’t drink anything else.

      Boiling water concentrates many of the undesirable elements, actually, it doesn’t just make them magically float away.

        Yeah, in order to purify water with boiling it’s necessary to capture and condensed the steam. This distilled water is often considered too clean because it doesn’t have certain minerals our bodies usually get from water.
