I've just been reading about Gravity-Fed Water Filtering and thought I would post the picture from the website.
Looks like things could be getting easier for us idle types, no more pumping ;-)
We will be testing the method and add our test results to this post.
After experimenting, we discovered our MSR MiniWorks Water filter was just not upto the task of gravity feeding (a website incorrectly suggested it could be used in a gravity feed system). So for now we will continue with our orginal setup as we both think it works really well, with the exception of the Big Guy and I purchased a Platypus 6 Liter water 'tank' rather than using the 15Liter folding carrier we used before which was rather cumbersome to open up in the field.
ReplyDeleteYeah we now prefer to just fill up one 6ltr Platy Water tank and then haul it back to camp and then filter it into our clean 6ltr Platy. By far the best method that we've used in years of collecting water.
