Question about Distilled water
Question about Distilled water
Ok, My house is 150 years old and my basement is more like a cellar and gets cold. We had sub zero temps here last week and things froze in my basement/cellar including my stock pile of distilled water. My question is (and this might be a dumb one) will the water still be distilled after thawing it out?

Re: Question about Distilled water
Interesting question.... I can't see any reason why it would not be distilled water any longer - nothing changed except it froze and thawed.

You may need to add water to Freeze Dried Distilled water, just make sure to ONLY add Distilled Water to your Freeze Dried Water. Jim

As long as the bottles were closed, you should be fine.
If the bottles cracked open from freezing, then I guess it would depend on how "picky" you are. I suppose it is possible that if the bottle were cracked that "something" could get into it. Personally, as long as the bottle was clean, I'd probably still use it.

I have no doubt, how I sleep affects every waking moment.
I am making progress-NOW I remember that I can't remember

If this isn’t rocket science why are there so many spaceshots?
