I heard a lot of people said if water keep been reboil is bad to be drunk because the minerals in it somewhat became toxic. Then those machine like Coway or Cuckoo they have a separate tank in it especially for hot water, so it will kept refilling the tank, does that means the water inside keep on been reboil?

then it is bad to be drink right?

1) there is no concrete evidence it's bad o not
2) even if got negative effect, the effect is very minimal
3) technically, the best water to drink is normal filtered water, as it contained the most nutrient
4) u can boil & process until bcom super clean distilled water (air suling) & still drinkable, but it no longer has any nutrient benefits

either way, just drink whatever water that ur body can accept.
for me, i either just boil tap water, or filtered tap water.
no need fancy coway or diamond gimmick for me.
imo, processing & breaking down the water molecule or making the water too clean will slowly weakens your immune system.
that's y many people when go india, dink their water, straight stomachache, while the local drink like bause without issue.

conclusion, drink water that still has nutrient value. dun drink water that is too super clean, as it weakens your immune system.

it depends.
at home, got filter, straight drink direct from filter.
if wanna make hot drinks, need to boil lo.
sometimes got left over som water in kettle, i then i need to make hot water again, just straight top off & boil again.
provided the water is still clean by looks & less than 2-3 days.

If water is left boiled too long or is reboiled, the chemical compounds change for the worse. By leaving your water to boil down, you’re actually concentrating many harmful chemicals instead of getting rid of them … The same thing happens when you reboil water, as the compounds concentrate and increase the risk of ingesting certain chemicals.’

this one is funny

let say that water got 100ppm of TDS or 4.5ppm iron

how come reboiling makes the said contents increase

raining down from langit or what?

i think the writer got confuse with concentration increase and the chemical contents in water itself

The water that we get has went through so many places, encountered different chemical, bacteria, etc.

The water then went through syabas for filtration and etc.

What the water went through before coming to you has been worst by thousand or millions time compared to reboiling.

boiling off

means the water become less and less

then add more water, boil it off again

like this the tds will increase

but no one the world want to do that la

Those pipu say so due to living with caveman.

Org kite dulu say no good keep boiling because they wanted first hand water. Not leftover even though it is as good as new.

So make it less obvious they say cannot re-boil.

When want hot water, they will get new “fresh” hot water.

So boiling the water over and over won’t kill.

First you need to state whether you are boiling filtered water or unfiltered tap water.

1. Filtered tap water
Most filtration system are reverse osmosis. This removes almost completely the minerals. Boiling almost pure water over and over again gives you pure water.

2. Unfiltered tap water
Reboiling increases the concentration of the minerals due to loss of water molecules as steam. Is the amount of mineral consumed harmful? That depends on your overall diet. It might even be a supplement for your deficiency in rare cases.

Yes reboiling water twice or more may increase the water temperature above 100 Celsius. Thus it may cause fire and ur whole house might burn down.

Chemist here

If you’re using a metal kettle, reboiling the same water is fine as there is no changes in the water chemistry.

However there are some precautions for plastic kettles as it uses heat resistant plastic, plastic nonetheless will have some traces of chemicals in the water. That’s after you boil the same water multiples times anyway. So you’ll be fine even if you reboil the same water 2-3 times.

It does have an effect when you're using it to make coffee.

I used to reboil the leftover water in my electric kettle all the time to make coffee.

After a while I was wondering why my coffee taste sucks even though it should be the same.

After some goggling, found about using "fresh-boiled water".

Since then I always readd some water to leftoever water before boiling it. Taste of coffee back to normal. smile.gif
