Starting on Cayston today--questions on sterilizing.

@fdixon63, Which device are you using for the Cayston? If it is proprietary and you damage it, will they replace it, or will it be out of your pocket?
I personally would stick to their recommended sterilization method, but I'm a dinosaur. I still use a saucepan for all of my sterilization. In both of my households and my 17' camper, nothing is simpler than a pot, distilled water and a timer, and there is no extra stuff cluttering my limited counter or storage space.

@sueinmn - Hi Sue. I don't plan to go down a different path than what is indicated in the instruction that came with my handset. I'm using the Altera nebulizer handset along with the Pari altera compressor. Do you think I need to boil with distilled water or can I use tap water? Yes, they say use distilled water. Doesn't boiling kill bacteria or is there another reason for using distilled water? This disease really give you an education. Thanks Sue for your sage wisdom.
