ok, i only tryed sauce pan, canteen and bucket. for some reason i didnt find a cooking pot
sometimes it fills to 1499 ml when it only works at 1500 ml, at least in my experience.

Apparently it takes more than a week because I've left an oven on for over a week with a tainted pot of water in it, and it's still tainted. :D
I know this is a bug and the devs are aware, so I guess this should be fixed in the next update.

I think you need to max out the heat output and then leave the oven on to have it burn the building down. If you just "turn on" the oven it shouldn't happen.
If you can find a water cooler, it seems to be an infinite source of clean drinking water currently.

It seems there are quite a few little bugs with liquids still to be ironed out.

Yeah right. But the PZ official name of it is water dispenser though.

As I understand it you need an actual 'campfire' and a cooking pot with tainted water.

The game is full of UK spelling and descriptions for a game that takes place in America. It is so obviously unsettling to Americans.

At least we have the ability in the game to set the naming correct. The only unfortunate thing is the use of Kilograms.
Mortar_Grinder = "Cement Mixer",

I once saw someone on the bug report forum who flagged “initialise” as a misspelling and reported it as a bug lol
I'm in Texas, from Virginia, and I've only ever used water dispenser, but that might just be me. Lol
