I have read a few different theories on what liquid should be used in airlocks and blow pipe buckets and was wondering what everyone here is using. I have included some options in the poll but please post comments if you'd prefer on the benefits and drawbacks.
 
I use star-san/distilled water mixture from my sanitation bucket.
