Good morning sister Jill. We are so happy your ohana invested a distiller. We all have to invest in ourselves to create our own infrastructure and supply chain to become self-reliant as possible. The distiller is one of three sources we use to collect water. If you use hot water to start with, distiller will process in fast time. We have used ours for over 10 years and still going. to add minerals back we add a pinch of (Himalayan salt or sea salt). We keep 6 gallons on a metro-rack in dinning room, rotating the 1 gallon jugs as we use them. I also canned a case of the distilled H2o, to keep sterilized water on hand for rinsing wounds as part of our medical supplies. We were able to cruise the "Alaskan Vortex" and onward to the present. We had peace of mind when all the towns around were issued "boil water" notices from there authorities because they lost power to the treatment plants and pipe breakage. We were good to go in Bedford. To many times the authorities have waited to long to issue warnings. Invest in yourself friends. Sorry Jill, didn't mean to type out a paragraph.
Very interesting. During the winter we use a lot of distilled water for our humidifier in the bedroom and also use distilled water for our hardwood floor steamer. I can see multiple uses for something like this. Thanks for sharing!
Great idea!! I love distilled water. Hubby needs it for his bi-pap machine and I like using it for almost everything. This will take us away from having to buy it by the gallon.
Just unboxed my distiller. It is the vevor. I read the strangely translated😊 booklet but was so happy to find your youtube video. I have been using a cpap for 3 month now. My sleep clinic gal said tap water is fine but like you my sinuses get irritated easily. When I realized how much air was being pushed into me with cpap I thought I should be careful. I have been using water that has been boiled for a minimum of five minutes But I like the purity of distilled water and I am happy not to be boiling water or adding more plastic into recycling. I am a retired Canadian living in Queensland Australia. Thank you
I been using a Megahome Distiller for over 5 yrs now. It gives me a gallon at a time. But I have been thinking about buying a Berkey too. Thanks for the video.
Hi Jill this is great. We use distilled water to rinse our sinuses because of the central Texas allergies. I'm going to get one for Mike and I, Blessings Rochelle
Before using the first time, you're instructed to clean the distiller with the citric acid. What is the silver trivet-like piece for? In my opinion, it we're eating as good as we can, we get minerals from the REAL foods we eat. I feel that distilled water is most certainly great to drink and safe. We got it because I'm in the middle of a 12 week gut healing protocol and our tap water is full of fluoride and chlorine. I wonder if ANY tap water has anything beneficial in it. Going forward, I have no desire to put much of anything toxic, that I can best avoid, into my system. It was amazing to finally discover what's been wrong with me. Through usage of pharmaceutical antibiotics throughout my life, I developed leaky gut. My practitioner was able to determine that I'm without the two most vital bacteria needed in our guts through testing available to all in the US. Thankfully I'm on the road to recovery and don't want to go back to poor habits/eating. Everyone is unique and different. We all must find what works best for us.
No tap water is good for you. Even our well water is heinous, I think because even the water table has been poisoned in many areas from all the agricultural chemicals and chemicals from plastics, manufacturing, etc, that go into landfills.
I just made my purchase. Buying distilled water is getting expensive (and that's if you can find it). I use it for my humidifier (1 gallon per day), iron, coffee maker, steam mop and watering orchids and other sensitive plants. This will pay for itself in a couple of months. Can't believe I hadn't thought to do this sooner. I'm not clear on how you leave some water to keep it from having deposits in the bottom. Program it to stop sooner? Thanks for the video.
I have the same model, and it works very well. Probably 200 gallons of water run through it to date and I just use vinigar and a blue scotchbrite pad to clean the lime scale out after about 5 gallons or so. Takes about 3 hours per gallon. It also works well for distilling Alcohol. I used to make home made wine, and when you make it, once in a while you get a batch that doesn't taste good, so you distill it into whisky! But, if you buy the cheepest rotgut from the store and run it through and redistill it, you get out all the bad flavors and increase the proof in the process. I got to 190 proof in some mof my batches and WOOO WHOOO, powerful stuff. All good things to know how to do and make incase the wporld does take the big turd someday. Bartering is better than cash, and clean water and alcohol are worth there weight in gold during the end of the world! 😉😇🍸
It's sort of cool....never know when I come see ya if we're going shopping or planting watermelons. Always good stuff. Appreciate you sharing. Jesus bless.
Thanks. Good info. We have an extensive filtering system for our well that is removing all minerals and vitamins, so I will take your advice in adding back some minerals.
When using for the first time with the citric acid. Make sure to fully mix the granules in the water and do not leave any on the bottom. Any left on the bottom will permanently pit the bottom and soon after that you may see rust in this pitting. I didn't know stainless steel rusts, but apparently so!
My guess is if you have something you don't want to come into direct contact with the heated bottom. I bought it to remove alcohol to make feco. In that case, I place my container on the rack. It's like using a double boiler.
We use a reverse osmosis unit for our daily drinking water, but I have been wanting to get something for distilling water. Mostly for use when I am making herbal remedies and wine. I routinely add jars of RO water to any canning loads I have room in, just to keep sterile water on hand for medical uses. You never know when you'll need it. Going to talk to Hubs about getting one of the distillers, because I trust your opinion of it. Thanks for sharing! Hugs.
You should test the ppm of the water, PH alone isnt a good indicator. You could add a little citric acid to the hard water and it will be PH7, but it wont be pure :). If you retest the PH after a few hours it will likely have changed. Pure water is sometimes called "hungry water" , it will absorb gasses like carbon dioxide (CO2) which will affect the PH.
Wow, just got mine and am dying to use it. Tired of paying for distilled water that has gotten so expensive Post Pandemic, I need it for Humidifiers, Steam Mop, and will use it my Neti Pot as well. I am going to boil my fill water first, to see if I can cut the time down. Subscribed and a big Howdy from the Pacific North West
Good Morning. Just found your channel. Thank you for the video. Very thorough. Would you share the link of which vitamins and minerals you use and where they can be purchased? Also, how do you store the distilled water and how long can it be stored? Thank You!
Good morning Connie. Thank you so much for watching us. I get our supplements from Eidon minerals. Are use the magnesium, potassium, zinc, iodine, selenium, or anything else I feel like I need at the time I need them so you’ll need to evaluate and see what minerals you my need. Of course the zinc is something we take daily. The magnesium is good for sleep and migraines.
I wondered if you could taste a difference before & after? Sad that we have to filter out fluorine & chlorine, then add good minerals & electrolytes ourselves. 🙁
So we have this and love it. I’m now out of the cleaner they sent. I couldn’t find more on the vector site. I looked on Amazon and it’s kinda pricy. But thinking its just citric acid. Any experience with that? I saw another video where he just used white vinegar. Thoughts?
A bit tricky until you realize that you put the metal ring around the picture first then add the nut, then placing the handle over it, will keep it all in place while you insert the screw!
@@ntxg I don't think so, unless I've mistaken where that filter pad is placed in the process. What I thought I saw was the filer pad being placed in the spigot at the EXIT side of the steam distillation process. That means 100% of all minerals have already been left behind.
@@MRTOMBO right. I think I even saw the VEVOR channel itself say it's just for taste, but that is wrong. And there is so much miscommunication and misunderstanding going around on all channels about the carbon filter. I wish it was clear and straightforward.
I was disappointed because I thought you were going to go into some detail about how to set time and temperature as that's the thing that is NOT covered in the instructions that come with the unit. What does come in the instructions is to wash the unit properly and to do a 20 minute run with 1 liter of water and 2 tbsp of the citric acid crystals (dissolved) then rinse with clean water to make sure your unit is clean before distilling your first batch. As an aside: You should be drinking distilled water because practically all water (in the US anyway) has chlorine and fluoride added. Fluoride is a NEUROTOXIN (brain poison) and you should not be putting it into your body! Stop using fluoride toothpaste! If you brush your teeth with xylitol toothpaste, use xylitol gum and xylitol pastiches you will not have cavities. There are natural bacteria in your mouth that kill the bacteria (fed by sugar among other things) that create cavities - that natural bacteria defense is killed by fluoride - that's why dentists recommend it! More clients for them....
Thank you! I just purchased mine - and it would have been nice if you showed us how to get the handle on the glass container! I struggle to do this on my own.
I've got a Megahome distiller---the glass container is a gallon and a half (I believe). I've used it intermittently---have put up bottles of the distilled water just to have on hand. Lately, for the past month, I've really felt a need to cleanse my body as much as possible and have been using it for drinking and cooking. I love mine! I purchased a gravity water filter too, a Berkey, in the event of prolonged power outages and unsafe water. Have never unpacked it---I just feel better knowing we have one.
The instructions say to turn it on with 1 liter of water and 2 tablespoons of citric acid to clean it first. It says to not drink that water . Did you do that? Whats the reason for that?
I just bought this for 10 bucks, never used, still in the plastic in the shipping box at Salvation army this morning ...My intention with it .... MAKE MOONSHILE
The provided jug is not well designed. For a large jug this size, you do not want to take all day pouring from it because of the weight. But with this jug, if you pour too fast, it will spill from the sides as well as the spout!
Yes, you can drink distilled water BUT you need to add minerals back into the water or you will become deficient in essential minerals. Trace Mineral has a drop that you can add back to distilled water..
Add salt and minerals from your food (main source anyway). No more Pfas, micro/nano plastic (output from Reverse Osmosis plastic membrane), pesticides, nitrates...
Not sure how much electricity costs in Canada but in my area it’s 14 cents per kwh. This machine is 750w so for me to run it for 3.5 hours would cost roughly 37 cents.

With the average gas price this month at $2.94/g, that would cost me roughly $1.47 in gas. So I would pay a total of $2.92 to drive to the store, buy the 1 gallon of distilled water, and then drive home. The distiller I bought was $90, so I would need to make roughly 30 gallons to break even. Also, there’s a time savings, probably 20-30 minutes per trip, which can easily add up over the year. With all that said, for this product to make sense, it depends on how much you will use it. Personally saving that much per gallon is a win, and I don’t have to bother with picking up gallons from the store!
@@stevegyee232How about not having to accumulate the plastic bottles which, just because they might get recycled, doesn't mean they don't incur effort and energy to do so?
It may sterilize but that doesn’t remove calcium deposits that stop our coffee makers, irons and can’t use in teapot. North Texas has the hardest water of any place we have ever lived and that’s saying something as we are retired military and have lived all over the world.

You won't taste anything.
750W for 3.5 hours for 2L........or 4L for $1.25 CAD. electricity will cost you more than the water......
Not sure how much electricity costs in Canada but in my area it’s 14 cents per kwh.
This machine is 750w so for me to run it for 3.5 hours would cost roughly 37 cents.
At my local grocery store, 1 gallon of distilled water costs $1.37 plus 6% tax = $1.45, and I would also need to factor in the cost in gas (I don’t have an electric vehicle)to get to the store and back.
Let’s assume the grocery store is 5 miles 1 way and I get 20mpg ( I actually get less but this makes the math easier). With the average gas price this month at $2.94/g, that would cost me roughly $1.47 in gas. So I would pay a total of $2.92 to drive to the store, buy the 1 gallon of distilled water, and then drive home.
The distiller I bought was $90, so I would need to make roughly 30 gallons to break even. Also, there’s a time savings, probably 20-30 minutes per trip, which can easily add up over the year.
With all that said, for this product to make sense, it depends on how much you will use it. Personally saving that much per gallon is a win, and I don’t have to bother with picking up gallons from the store!
But you're going to the store anyway, most likely so I think not factoring the gas/ trip is best for other people. Thanks for the math.
