The best way to get rid of the cotton swabs that end up at the bottom of the oceans...

It's completely natural and, in the end, much cheaper than the filtering carafes. I can only recommend it, it's simple and effective.

After boiling it as instructed for 10 minutes, I compared it after several hours to the taste of tap water which doesn't have much. The difference is very slight and I would have a hard time recommending these coals to purify water.

Very quick receipt of the product. I tested the pearls in a carafe as well as for the cleaning of a kettle and a coffee machine. The water in the carafe no longer has the taste of chlorine and is very clear. The whole family is satisfied. Concerning the cleaning of the kettle, nothing could be easier. Fast and efficient, I am amazed! I am really satisfied with this product that I did not know before. The same goes for the coffee maker's tank.

I bought this product because it is small, easy to place in small bottle or carafe of one liter, having a very hard water, I sought a natural solution to filtered and cleaned my water u tap before using it for hot drink, these small sticks really do their job and when I drink a tea there is no more small deposits on the surface of water, the carbon does not leave bad taste, or taste to water. I think that I would not hesitate to repurchase some when those will not make any more their role because I am very surprised by so much effectiveness and the fact that it does not leave any taste with water

Product conforms to the expectations. A small advice however, before use it is necessary to pierce the tube so that the water circulates normally inside and also to avoid that the tube floats, which harms the effectiveness.

I have been using these filtering coals since the beginning of the school year and I am very happy with them. I have compared several variants, always from Orinko, and what changes is only the geographical origin of the coals. The purification qualities remain the same and are comparable to what can be obtained with the Brita decanters. Contrary to what we sometimes read, the coals are not remineralizing at all. My husband can analyze the water in a laboratory and it comes out identical in terms of minerals). According to the origins, the charcoals are more or less fine and can thus better correspond to your containers.Initially one activates the charcoals by making them boil in a pan during 10minutes, process to be renewed each month.One plunges then the charcoal in the water to be filtered (25g by 500ml of water approximately) and one leaves it between 4 and 8h. Between two uses it is necessary to let it dry, which is done very quickly. It is not recommended to leave it in the water for more than 24 hours in a row, the water does not take any additional taste but it is rounder in the mouth. The only disadvantage is that you have to wait and therefore know how to anticipate and prepare your water the day before for the next day. At the end of the 6 months the charcoal is compostable.

I was able to test the Binchotan coals: superior filtration to ceramic beads, the taste is better. The disadvantage is that you have to activate it and the filtration time is long.

These activated carbons really improve the taste of tap water. They are also very economical because each carbon lasts 6 months.

We have been using the full Binchotan for my son's gourd and ours for several years now. We bought Takesumi Binchotan and ceramic beads. After receiving the package, we put it to work with the ceramic beads. The full Bichotan is efficient but the Takesumi is even more efficient. Effective after 2 hours and even more if you leave the Takesumi 4 hours. Tap water is much softer. I would like to point out that the hardness of the water in our department is high. I use for 1 carafe with a capacity of 1?600?ml, 15 ceramic beads and 1,5 Takesumi. Much cheaper than the reference brand B!. in use, even if the Takesumi can be broken during handling. The Takesumi is more fragile but we find it more efficient than the full Binchotan. To note: Fast delivery. Upon opening, 1 Binchotan broke in two and another one broke in 3 pieces on the purchase of 3 boxes. Perhaps Orinko should provide bubble wrap around the round boxes. After sending an email, Orinko responded quickly with a new box to compensate for the breakage.

I find this product good because the water tastes better. However, what bothers me is that there are small black residues in the bottom of the pitcher, so it's a little embarrassing. Received very well packaged and quickly. Conforms to the description and the picture.

I am a fan of these activated carbons since the day I banned plastic bottles from my life. easy to use, these sticks allow me to purify the tap water, which is very hard at home, and to obtain a water that is really better to the taste but also to the mind. I try to contribute, in my own way, to save the environment and to avoid ingurgitating metals and other junk food

Bjr, I have been using bamboo charcoal for 5 months. My house is supplied by a well in 2014 when I arrived, I had the well water tested. Nitrites: 0,5 Nitrates: 42,68. In August I had the bamboo filtered water analyzed Nitrites: 0.01 Nitrates: 29.04. I am delighted with the result and I recommend this product.

1 stick = 6 months of use. 6 sticks = 3 years = 29,99€ (at this time). The only constraint: boil the stick every month for 10 minutes. This is the way to avoid hundreds of plastic bottles. We don't use water bottles, we use a Br-ta carafe but filters are polluting consumables and we wanted to find a solution to go further in our ecological approach while continuing to filter the tap water because it is not always very good. So, since we are convinced (charcoal is well known for its filtration qualities, whether for aquariums or others, and the difference in taste is obvious some days), we are going to finish the 2 Br-ta cartridges we have left and then we will switch exclusively to Binchotan charcoals. We received sticks of different diameters and some are quite large, which does not make it easier to pass through the bottle ... This is the only drawback. But I found a bottle that accepts some sticks that are not too wide: "DEAR-AY Sport Water Bottle in Borosilicate Glass". Positive point: the company has a "???????????????????? ?????????'??????????????????????????: 1% of the sale price of your charcoal is donated to our REFORESTATION PROGRAM with our partner NGO. "A good discovery!
