    Well where are you gonna store the water while it cools? I don’t know of anyone that keeps glass bottles around anymore.

    So the water is gonna end up either going into a plastic cup or bottle, totally defeating the purpose, or it can go into one of those fancy thermos bottles, which are soldered together with lead based solder.

    Cute.

      Actually, if you’re at the point where you’re so concerned about micro plastics that you’re boiling and filtering your water then I’d say you’re actually pretty likely to have already got yourself a bunch of glass or earthenware bottles.

        Cool, and there ain’t a damn thing wrong with that either.

        To be perfectly honest, I drink more beer than water, and my preferred beer comes in glass bottles. I have no idea how they process their water in the brewery, but hey, I’m still alive and enjoying life 👍

      Who uses lead solder these days? In my country it’s even illegal for normal people to buy it and businesses need a permit to buy and sell it if they can justify it.

      Normal lead free solder works great.
