depends on his temperature the colder it
is the more chance air bubbles will

months so if it happens in your home
what do you do here's a glass test you
can do to see if the milky appearance is
down to air bubbles fill a glass of cold
water from the tap see if it clears from

indicates the milkiness is due to air
bubbles and that the water is fine to
drink if it doesn't clear in the glass
