According to FEMA and various manufacturers, properly sealed water doesn't spoil but can take on the flavor of the container. Take a look at the fema.gov site for "Food and Water in an Emergency"

We just ordered some, and I plan on just drinking it when it gets around the expiration date then ordering some fresh supply to keep on hand again for emergencies. Needless to say nothing lasts forever including these water bags. If they are getting dried out or have micro cracked seams bacteria can get into the water. Throw those things out rather than take a chance for $15! Or water some plants. Of course you wrote that back in Oct 2012 so I hope all is well if you drank them.When I received mine last week they were already a few months old. But it is a real good tasting water, tastes like a good spring water.

No, just start drinking/using this water. I have been using Essentia for 6 months now. I noticed within a day or 2 that I was feeling better. I have joint pain from a knee injury. After about 3 days of drinking this water it was noticeably better?? In month 2 or 3 I was traveling and did not have any PH water. I could tell!! I was noticeably thirsty even after drinking regular bottled water and felt dehydrated. Just as before I started using this stuff. I am very surprised the difference it makes. I use it in place of water on everything, coffee, tea, cooking Etc...

Like the others, I can't answer the first question. We opened our last can over a year ago and it is still good to drink when we mix it with water. I think the expiration date and the usage after opening as the company lists it is very conservative. It holds for much longer than they say it will.

For my family ... no. We just could not tolerate the metallic taste of the water after it was filtered with the EveryDrop. We use the 3-gallon water jugs that we fill at a water filter station (.25/gallon). We tried the EveryDrop once, did not like the taste of the water but gave it another chance - the second 3-gallons tasted worse. We threw the filter in the garbage.

I have used this product before and it keeps 55 gals of water good for about 5 years. I drank some five years old and am still kicking and smiling.

Stanley may have gotten a bad bottle, but I also get the impression that he is a sad, lonely, bitter, spiteful, unhappy human being and he has my sympathy.I have had mine for going on four years. It is really amazing how well they work. I have given half-dozen or so as gifts, and everyone loves them. I see them everywhere now too.Getting to the point, I checked hydroflask.com, and regrettably it looks like they are no longer making the sport cap. I don't like them, but mom uses the one on her 'flask daily and loves it. I think we should encourage them to bring them back, don't you?

Mr. Philip, you sir jumped to the conclusion that this is for still water instead of sparkling. But if I accept your contention that it will be still, then I recommend water purified by equatorial trade winds, surrounded by ancient volcanoes, bottled on a remote island, then flown via a Gulfstream G650 at a speed to 610 mph to my gym. The water should be changed daily for maximum freshness. Discerning rowers might instead fill this rower with a really lovely Château d'Yquem (I prefer the 2001) hand selected in Gironde, France.

yes you can. Just make sure you close the cap tight on it. I have a bottle that I bought over a year ago and I just used it the other day with no problems (Yes, it was a used bottle).

I don't see why not. The water becomes an electrolyte drink in 5 minutes and drank it the next day with the same taste. So it shouldn't be an issue

I would think so, call the number of the company. They are very nice when I called to ask about reusing the bottle for storing water in frig. I just ordered my second bottle for my sweet old guy.

I had a Giotto freeze up from the calcium buildup during a drought in Texas, the water was literally white coming out of the tap. The lever's range of motion was severely restricted, I tried the Dezcal, but it sadly didn't work for me & I had to buy a new machine. Call Whole Latte Love, they are a wealth of knowledge & very helpful to the coffee community. I have learned my lesson & now only use bottled spring water.

Yes, you can. However if you need a lot of water it will take you a lot of time.

My thinking is...you need to drink so much water in a day. This gets you on your way and easier than taking the large MV. The drink gives me more energy and hydrates me at the same time. My preference to taking a MV.

Public water, milk, and tea. Tea sample results made me stop drinking it (>4ppm on average), some skyrocket above 10ppm.
