Water grades and purification
Water is graded by its purity, the share of the liquid that is water. The grade sets its value.

- Gutterflow
99.9% or more purity. +100% value.
99% to 99.9% purity. +50% value.
98% to 99% purity. No change in value.
96% to 98% purity. -33% value.
90% to 96% purity. -75% value.
Below 90% purity. -90% value.
Purity is the share of water in all the liquid in the container. Every other liquid counts against it: contaminants, Mineral from nutrient tablets, chlorine from purification tablets and Alcohol.
A liquid is worth 40 Credits per liter, then the grade's modifier applies, then the container's own value is added. A Bottle of Water (Standard) with 750 mL of Basewater is worth 35 Credits before markups: 30 for the water, 5 for the bottle.
Until a customer exposes it, water is judged by its label. Below 35% purity it is called Unknown Water and priced as Gutterflow.
