Boiling Water is a sure fire way to get rid of dangerous germs. Bacteria and other unwanted organisms can wreak havoc on your body.
But did you know that once your water temperature reaches 185° F ( below the boiling point) almost all disease causing organisms are destroyed?
The main reason people get water up to the boiling point is because most of us don’t carry a thermometer into the wild. Boiling your water is the best way to make sure your water is hot enough to safely drink.
