Once I changed the thickness of the cup, the amount of ice in the bowl, adding freezing water into the bowl of ice, and switching from table salt to sea salt I began to get better results.

When it came to the results of the bottled spring water and the tap water I was surprised that the tap water had better results than the bottled spring water.
