Distillation is boiling’s dramatic, overachieving sibling. It takes the steam—the vapor—and traps it. Then it cools that vapor back into liquid. That’s pure water, baby. No minerals, no germs, no drama.
Imagine this: you boil dirty water. The steam rises. You catch it in a cold tube. That condensed liquid? It’s like water’s ghost. Cleaner than a freshly washed window.
Here’s a quirky fact: distilling water removes 99.9% of impurities. That includes salt, lead, and even microplastics. Boiling? It just makes the microplastics wobbly. They don’t leave.
