As far as I'm aware it should be cooled boiled water? 🙃

Cooled boiled water Not straight from the tap

I only use cooled boiled water where I live because the water is rank but when I go up to Scotland I'll just use tap water

Baby is 8 months old So yes that’s absolutely fine . Two water from 6 months. I assume You mean hot shot method - so power boiling water on top then fill with cold water.

If you’re doing hot shot method, I measure out the cooled boiled water (in a separate bottle) from the kettle first, then boil it and make it up that way

Yes I'm asking because I'm making up a thermaflask with boiling water and I need to make one with cold water so I can make the baby's bottles up while we go on a day out. I'm asking if I can just use cold tap water for the cold bottle? As I haven't got time to boil the kettle and let it cool down before we go out

Cooled boiled water 😊

You can boil it the night before and pour into a different container to keep top morning

After seeing all the scandals over water pollution in the UK I wouldn't to be honest 🥺

Cooled boiled water for bottles

Use cooled boiled water instead of tap water

I use cool boiled water but put it in a mug in the morning then in the fridge to cool quickly before putting in the flask x
