Pennies coming to EXPU.

Just a matter of time before I am looking at a $250k short-term capital gain thanks to Alf & Robert :)

Ahhhh, but that is clearly wrong. Sorry! I can't be fooled. LOL!

YES THE LAB CLEARLY SHOWS THAT EXPU WATER IS INFESTED WITH BUGS

Was this missed? This is awesome! Look here to see >>>> Coliform = Not detected

The lab gave a detailed explanation of the plate count that has been posted on the board many times. This specific part of their explanation relating to the Plate count and Coliform Level is extremely important. There was no Coliform detected. As shown below, the Coliform level is what is extremely important. The plate count on the report is a non-issue, as is seen below.....

As such, especially with natural Spring waters, plate count is constantly varying inside a product bottle. It is unlikely that every single bacterium is destroyed in the disinfection process. Remember, you are disinfecting the water, not sterilizing the water and there is a huge difference. Inevitably, these bacteria (which are hopefully of the non-invasive heterotrophic types instead of Coliform species) and other microbes begin to proliferate and the plate count goes up. As the microbes die off, the SPC goes down, and so on and so on forming a sine wave shaped graph. Of main importance is that no Coliform (E. coli more specifically) bacteria are detected, which is where the FDA would have a problem. I hope some of this helps. So, it is a requirement that both finished product and sources should be tested weekly for total Coliform and SPC/HPC, but there is no real remediation or necessary treatment for just plate count as it is a non-enforceable guideline value.

Well E. Coli was not detected, that's a huge plus. But the other contaminates are not specified... I wonder if these are more leaning towards a mold or fungus...?

It is a hard concept to understand for some, but the plate count here is not a big deal. many excellent explanations here why it doesn't matter. coliform levels were "NOT detectable". that is the important data, not plate count. that's a fact.
