pure water!

Wow! I am so excited! I have been wanting a water purification system for a long time, but have never been able to decide which system to invest in. Reverse osmosis? Whole house? Under counter? It's so hard to find answers to which system would get rid of the most contaminants. I'm glad I waited to decide, as choosing a system made with minimal plastic was not on my list of wants previously. I recently discovered the Berkey water system which is supposed to be awesome. Ceramic filters remove every type of contaminant imaginable, including chemicals and pharmaceuticals, but leave the important minerals that your body needs. Sounds amazing. Researching this system on the internet, I became very skeptical. Apparently people are selling it as a franchise type business and the internet is so saturated with stores selling this product that it was hard to find unbiased information about it. I finally found some real customer reviews and purchased it from Giaim, which I trust.



I can't wait to start cooking with clean pure water. My one disappointment so far is the plastic spigot. It is the only plastic element sitting in the purified water. I found some interesting alternatives on the internet that may work, like this stainless steel wine tap. Think I will head over to the local brewing supply store in a few and see if they have any I can check out.
