This is lovely! Thank you 👍🌞
Ive been wanting to make essential oils for a while but it seemed like you would have to buy an expensive distiller!
This simple but effective option is superb!!🎉
In other videos I watched,people in the comments suggested to cover up the steam hole on the lid.They said ,it causes the ice water to drip into the water and contaminating the water.
I probably wouldn’t heat a plastic lid to distill water through
just came across this video and it is simple and to the point, SUPERB. I'm doing this.
thank you so much!
A precise and to the point tutorial. Thanks!
Amazon sells 4 liter home water distillers for $70, shipping included. I've had mine for 2 years with no problems.
Put me on ! Hit me w. A link please
does that distill the entire home water, or just the kitchen sink water for drinking?
As of 5 minutes ago…those distillers on Amazon are now $100-$150. Prices have apparently skyrocketed 😫
@@ErinElizMacma pants just sky rocketed lol
Doing this for drinking is extremely bad for you
simple clear and easy ...thank you
Great vid, needed this for my Venus Fly Trap
looking up this video for post apocalyptic prep survival
I am a voice from Germany: Comments deactivated on earlier Vids: No commentes. It says all. Censorship. You do that so well. Thumbs up!
Andreas....I like German people...tell me more
@@PlantbasedRunners When I was quite often in the States earlier the 90's the Americans liked to hear german language. It was some kind of funny to me. Because I do not think that german is a well sounding language. I suppose french is more 'musical'. The Russians say that german sounds to them like dog barking. Well.... I am neither american nor russian. So I can not say anything about that what impression they have about german.
@@andreasmaier5361 I learned German language at lower education.... German American accent is very much softer. But I have no problems with the harsher German accent and Polish suits Polish women well, maybe that's just my interpretation. American accents are Irish derived and more comical IMO.
Ok, how long does it take though, to collect enough distilled water? I've tried this method, with the ice, and it was a very slow process, I think I got about a cup after approximately six hours or so. I guess that might depend on how hot you get the water? Anyone have any tips for quicker collection?
awesome sir!!! I'd try this soon! thanks a lot!
Thank you now I can water my Lilly plant.
i just use distilled water from a gas station for my dragon tree, had no issues so far!
Thank you!
SO GREAT
LOVED IT
❤❤❤❤❤❤
great job
2 problems
The cover lid is plastic
The ice can melt and go through hole in the cover lid
Will the plastic handle affect the water?
yes
This is a terrible method
Deep, down inside. Even before you hit send, you knew the answer.
@@vidalott maybe I should trust my gut feeling more.
@@leahmay1506 They say, gut instinct is the superior form of cognition.
Is it safe using to radiator?
I appreciate you
And there you have it... I'm about to save some money.
Nope....🙂
Slight issue with this method is the concentration of chlorine and chlorine damaged water constituents, such as Trihalomethanes.
@@PlantbasedRunners What you said, sounded hot to people scared of long words, but 1 question breaks that up... _"Concentration of chlorine and chlorine damaged constituents where?!"_
@@TheProverbialHater no worries...in municipal tap water, due to boil off temperatures....the Chlorine and Trihalomethanes go first. Hence in certain Distillers they have an end sachet filter of activated charcoal. Even better is to use a reverse osmosis system first and break the chloramine bond, THEN use a distiller ...
This video would be great if you were using water from a spring with known constituents.
Water companies rarely talk about the presence of Trihalomethanes, because they are so ubiquitous. Also Trihalomethanes are a result of Chlorine damaged water, are so varied that only a small segment are measured and thirdly Trihalomethanes are KNOWN Carcinogens.
@@PlantbasedRunners _"in municipal tap water, due to boil off temperatures....the Chlorine and Trihalomethanes go first"_
Check mate... My first comment still stands thanks for proving my point. Not scared of long words sorry. Try it elsewhere.
Great man
This is nice 😘
Nice.
Great 👍🏻
Would that work with say, water from a river?
Yes.
Make sure the water from the melted ice doesn't leak into your distilled water below.
Can you use it for a CPAP machine
Yes
It really helps 😮😮😮😮😱😱😱
Can I put this in my humidifier
Yes
Distilled spaghetti flavor water!
What if I run my water through a brita filter will it work?
That's filtered, not distilled
Can we distil sea water 💦?
I'm sure you can, but a lot of pots won't react well with all the minerals and salt.... So make sure you don't boil it DRY or anywhere close to it.
@@AmeNoYukikaze Wow thanks! I thought 💭 it might be a solution to the rising waters and droughts for now...
@@gabrielleangelica1977 Ceramics and glassware ought to do just fine though. It's difficult to do on a large scale to combat droughts, because it takes a lot of energy to boil/evaporate a lot of water.
You can take a quick read on desalination to make sea water drinkable, which a lot of coastal cities or navy vessels often use.
@@AmeNoYukikaze Yes, looking into it...wish there WAS a company to do this on a larger scale.🌊
Slight issue with this method is the concentration of chlorine and chlorine damaged water constituents, such as Trihalomethanes.
Are you saying the chlorine goes up with the vapor into the bowl? in simpler terms please.
@@2380knight yes it boils off first as Chlorine has low boil off temperature
Suggestions?
@@changvasejarik62 let the water boil for around 20 minutes without the lid
Or wait 20 minutes so the water can off gas before boikeing it?
Have you tested the quality of this water? Is it safe to drink?
Hard to imagine it’s not safe to drink after water has been 100c for hours
@@kfcfan think the question is geared more towards how free from minerals the water is. If one has really hard water (say, like mine, coming in at nearly 2,000 parts per million) then does this method remove a fair bit of that hardness? I suspect that it does.
What a brilliant question...
You shoudn't drink distilled water because it will demineralise your teeth. But it is very usefull if you have too hard water for you household appliances...
Distilled water is too pure to drink. Maybe a glass or two won't hurt yiu, but you should not be drinking distilled water long term. Your body needs the minerals in regular water.
Thanks buddy
where will I find ice in the apocalypse ?
Can you just boil your water before you drink it
I’m curious too 🤔
That vapour that is produced once boiling is the pure water. It's all about trapping the steam which is clean and leaving the mess behind. So just boiling will only remove pure water in the form of steam and leave you with extra mess and less water.
It stay with the impurities that’s why distilled is a better option. Wouldn’t you agree?
@@ThisAintNews almost correct but you're missing something 😃
I went looking for a way to distill water for a houseplant. But I'll just gather rainwater. This is so wasteful on energy.
Agreed, but Some people need distilled water for other things.
Here because I have health issues that require me to drink lots of water, but I’m short on cash for bottled water
The problem is the distilled water boils…
Please dont hurt me
I thought distilled water undrinkable
Hideously inefficient with most of the newly collected water also boiling off. Also turns kitchen into a sauna.
You dont even need to put icecubes on the top of the lid. I dont.
If you dont use ice cubes, then the steam will condense into liquid at a slower rate wont it?
@@ME-br6ltwhy does it matter if it condenses at a slower rate or not? it still gets the job done.

If anyone needs fluoride in their water it's NYC.
@ctwatcher
It's everywhere. Name a water supply not impregnated with these water impurifiers. Do you remember when the vote on this came out ?? You had to vote in reverse - yes, meant no and no, meant yes. Did you know that ? If you participated, did you vote accordingly ? If so, did you tell others how the vote went? I remember explaining it to my parents.
@ctwatched
We’re still waiting for an answer
How much was the Gas Bill ??
Exactly. What a waste of energy

Make sure the ice is made from the distilled water too!
Tip
Slight issue with this method is the concentration of chlorine and chlorine damaged water constituents, such as Trihalomethanes.
@@PlantbasedRunners I'm not too bothered about the small amounts of chlorine or should I? I'll be happy as long as it gets the fluoride out
@@PlantbasedRunners you can easily boil it for 15 minutes to offgas chlorine and VOC’s can be removed with a charcoal filter.
I don’t think the ice cubes help
I hope the ice was made with distilled water
Why because of the steam hole in the cover? Wouldn't ordinary ice be ok on a solid cover?
lol came here to learn about distilled water and who do I find? A UFO conspiracy debunker hero!
Drinking distilled water can cause heart rhythm issues. Not advisable.
really?
@@4g63_Everythingyes
DO NOT drink it.
This is such a terrible method and doesn't work
Don't drink too much of that distilled water you'll burn a hole in your stomach
Just boil your water and when it cools it will be distilled
Ummm NO. Are you kidding or what?
I dont think you understand what distillation means.
