Has anyone placed distilled water in the pitcher overnight to drink next day?

I have used purified water and have not liked the taste nor the feel of the water in my body.

No, sorry can't help you. Honestly, I would only store liquids in the refrigerator in lidded glass or plastic containers.

Check out http://www.infusedwaters.com/All of the recipes I have made from that site have been super tasty. Some are made specifically for this pitcher.

Just leave a mixture of vinegar and water in the pot overnight and rinse thoroughly before using the next day

Yes. We accidentally did froze some water overnight. It was fine the next day.

Using tap water will eventually crystalize and impair the steam mechanism. Yes, this has happened to me and I now have a useless steamer. Several all night soaks with vinegar and hours of heating the vinegar in the steamer have not adequately removed the crystallization and made the steamer functional again. I'm shopping for another steamer right now, and I will absolutely use distilled water in it.

It is NOT premixed. You will need to add the same volume of distiller water.

We never put ice in the pitcher AND water in the machine, for the reasons you just stated, that would be common sense!!! My husband puts water in the machine only to brew... actually, he never puts ice in it, just brews it and sticks it in the fridge. Puts ice in the glass right before pouring. To each their own, but yes, if you chose to do both of the above actions, you will get those results.

Absolutely! Put 8 scoops of leaves in the brewer, fill with hot tap water and let steep overnight in the fridge. In the morning, remove leaves and add sugar or honey to taste and you're done.

I've never timed it but it does take awhile. I fill the top at night and have water in the morning.

The instructions do not require distilled water. I use it to delay any buildup, but it isn't necessary.

Yes, but I use tap water and it works fine. I have to fill it up once a day so buying distilled gets expensive.

Yes although when I bought mine I was encouraged to use it for cold brew. I told the vendor I didn't have a lot of time to brew water & make tea so the solution was to fill pitcher with cool or room temp water, fill tea basket and let sit overnight in fridge. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. The handle also allows you to hang horizontal on a shelf and it is leakproof. I'm not sure if the other reviewers have a defective product or are not using product correctly. It's great.

I am not really sure how it relates to distilled water. I would rather have a whole house filter, but that is not an option right now. I have a PUR pitcher, and the Zero pitcher, so I filter my water twice. Than I put a few drops of lemon juice to make it alkaline to drink. So, I just don't know the answer to your question.. Sorry.

Yes I use my machine several times per day and it works great each time. I would use distilled water so that you don't have to descale often.

Well, not really. The tea brews down hot over the ice which dilutes and cools to make the perfect strength iced tea. I use a whole tray of cubes plus a couple more, 10 tea bags, and water to the line they put on the inside of the brewer. Results are great, cooled tea. Doesn't come out icy cold - but then you can pour it over ice, or refrigerate until cold. Without ice in the pitcher - you may as well just use a tea kettle and tea pot method.

The instructions do not specify to use distilled water. I use cool tap water. Definitely need to clean according to instructions. I am very happy with this humidifier.

I simply soak in enough hot water to cover overnight. Some people bring water to a boil, then strain when it cools. Either way works.
