The Collective

People who tested it for themselves.

You don't have to take our word for any of it. Run the reproducible home test and see the result.

Verify it yourself

A protocol you can run at home.

The oil-on-produce test is a reproducible kitchen experiment that visualizes the difference between plain water and pH 11.5 wash water. Twenty minutes, no equipment beyond two glasses.

Photograph your before and after, then email both photos to the collective. With your permission, we may feature the clearest comparisons in the journal.

  1. 01

    Prepare your sample

    Take a clean glass. Half-fill with tap water. Add three drops of mustard oil. Stir briefly. The oil sits as visible droplets on the surface, your residue analog.

  2. 02

    Apply to produce

    Submerge a tomato, an apple, or a few leaves of spinach. Soak for sixty seconds. Lift the produce out. The oil will have transferred to the surface.

  3. 03

    Rinse and compare

    Rinse one specimen under tap water for ten seconds, the other under Estoqi pH 11.5 wash water. Examine both. Photograph both. Email your result to the Estoqi collective using the link below.

“It looks like a piece of laboratory equipment because that's what it is. Beautiful, quiet, and it does one job honestly.”

“I ran the home test the day it arrived. The visual difference is the proof; the lab data is the receipt.”

“Our family's water habit changed overnight. Drinking water is no longer the chore we forget.”
