The selection of all kinds of drinks in stores is huge. However, there is not so much mineral water among this abundance. Reliable quality, which can bring real health benefits, upon closer examination, will turn out to be even less. But it can be done at home. In this case, you will know exactly what kind of water you took for cooking and what you put there. For the manufacture of such mineral water, natural stones are needed.
It is necessary
-
- 3 litas of water;
- a handful of agates;
- belemnite shells;
- membrane filter;
- three-liter transparent jar;
- teapot.
Instructions
Step 1
Take care of what you will insist on the water. You can only make it on agates. This stone, which has been considered magic since ancient times, is found in many places. It is a kind of chalcedony, its chemical formula is SiO2. That is, the water will contain silicon. Agates are found in many places, you can take any. Sarov agates are most suitable. Belemnite shells can be added. The people called this fossil "devil's finger". In this case, the water will also contain calcium.
Step 2
Prepare the water. Regular tap water must be dechlorinated. To do this, pour it into a kettle and heat it to about 70 ° C. It is not necessary to boil, it is enough to bring to a white boil and turn off. Let the water cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Filter the water. To do this, use a membrane filter. There are a lot of them on sale, including inexpensive ones, which are quite suitable for such a purpose. This procedure is necessary to remove suspended solids always present in the water. If you have spring water, you usually don't need to dechlorinate it. Any water must be filtered.
Step 4
Rinse belemnite stones and shells well and pour over with boiling water. Spread them out on a clean board and let dry in the sun. The board can be the most ordinary cutting board. It must first be washed very well.
Step 5
Place rocks and fossils in the bottom of a 3-liter glass jar. Carefully pour the prepared water into it. Place the jar in a bright place, but not exposed to direct sunlight. Infuse water for 3 days. Mineral water can be prepared many times from one handful of stones. Just remember to wash and dry them in the sun.
