Aim the shower into a bucket. Let it run for one minute. Measure how much water that has collected in the bucket. Now you have the flow per minute. Next, time yourself when you take a shower. Multiply the minutes spent showering with the flow rate to find the total amount of water used.
Obviously it partly depends on the shower head, but most will give about 2.5 gallons per minute, so you are using about 12 gallons of water, possibly about 8 - 9 of it hot.Place a 1 liter bottle below the shower and measure how many seconds it will require to fill it.
