Am I missing anything?

Ditto what Ron said....use pure solvent grade acetone available at Lowe's or Home Depot....also, dont forget to degrease the INSIDE of all the parts.....once you start the boiling cycles, the oil and grease in all those crevaces will float off into your distilled water ....not good! A good way to do it is with a toothbrush, hot tap water and a good dose of Dawn dishwashing liquid....the stuff really breaks down oils. Then finish your degreasing with acetone inside and out.
