Heat up an electric hot plate, take a couple of drops of the oil on your finger, flick it on the plate. If there's water in the oil, even emulsified water, it will pop and crackle.
Yep, no water. Emulsified water will often not settle out no matter how long you wait, so the crackle test (really, it's a real lab test) is used to detect water.
