Another trick with Aqua Mira is that if you have longer contact time with
the water you can use less. For example, if I was treating water late in
the day that I knew was going to sit overnight before I drank it I'd use a
1/2 dose (around 3 drops/liter instead of 7).
You can also do this in sections were you are treating a lot of water - if
you can remember what bottles were treated fully and what were not. Just
drink the fully treated ones first.
YMMV.
