Customer reviews of Orinko

Following the rave reviews and my research, I think this is the most ecological and economical solution to consume filtered and dynamized water. When it comes to the taste, I am not so sure because I feel a certain aftertaste. However I heated them 10 min in boiling water as indicated...

5 sticks of genuine Japanese Binchotan activated charcoal about 6 cm long and about 2.5 cm in diameter, not individually wrapped but simply lined up in a concrete box.Before first use, boil the charcoal in water for 10 minutes, renewing the water once or twice.Gently place the charcoal in a pitcher, jug or wide-mouthed bottle regardless of whether they are made of glass, stainless steel or clay. It should always be used with drinking water such as tap water.The charcoal is fragile and can break but this does not detract from its properties.I already had Binchotan charcoals that I re-boil every month to clean them and reactivate them, so they have a life of 6 months.the advantage with these, according to the notice on the back of the box, is that they do not need to be reactivated to last 6 months!The ideal is to prepare several bottles to have always one ready to consume.after that we put it in the compost we use it as natural deodorizer in the cupboards, refrigerators... Perfect to filter the water of heavy metals, chemicals, remineralize, bring trace elements, and gives a neutral taste to the water what avoids to buy water in plastic bottle.only positive points!

Well received, fast service, thank you

I was tired of water that tasted bad. I know that you have to draw the water for a long time before drinking it but it is not always easy. At first I was surprised because the charcoals put black on my hands. It's because you have to heat them in water, let them cool down and then you can start the water cycle which is purified... Well, I'm glad to hear that everything is written on the packaging and the result is great because I like the water. We forget that the simplest things are the best. I'm glad I discovered this product.

I have tried various charcoals to filter my tap water but after a three month trial I chose Binchotan Organic Bamboo Takesumi Activated Carbon. I use it every day for my personal consumption.

I bought these pearls 8 months ago to be able to drink the tap water which has a very bad taste in my region. Result these pearls are just great, I don't need to buy bottled water anymore, the tap water doesn't have this bad taste anymore. I only drink tap water now. Economical and better for the environment with the reduction of waste

Fast delivery, serious seller, well packaged product! :)

Used to make a tick collar for my dog and a bracelet for me.

Very good for the water which does not taste bad anymore

We decided to give up plastic bottles, so we bought this "kit" in order to eliminate the bad taste of tap water. The bet is successful, the whole family has adopted the activated carbon and ceramic beads.

oooooooooo

fast shipping, satisfied with the purchase

Fine makes it easy to use

Good value for money

I have been using it for a good year now after buying a water bottle with this activated carbon. It was a small discovery, I had no idea that it was possible. The water loses its calcareous taste and I get almost the same result as my Brita at home.for those who fear that the charcoals could make the water cloudy. Well, that is not the case. There is no residue.

I weighed each stick: one weighs 23 grams, the others between 29 and 31 grams and the heaviest one is 36 grams.Therefore, I think the thinnest one (23 g) will last only 4 months, while the biggest one will last 7 months.In total, such a purchase is made to last 2.5 years (at the rate of two sticks per year).I boil the stick for 20 minutes before the first use, and I renew EVERY MONTH (I put an alarm in my phone).In addition to the treatment with the BICHOTAN charcoal, I also use the porcelain beads.I have a water tester, and indeed, letting it rest for 4 or 8 hours decreases the concentration of minerals (or metals) contained in the water.the water of my carafe loses its smell of chlorine, it's more pleasant.On the other hand, on the price side, taking into account the raw material, I find this product very expensive (29 euros), even if it's only 1 euro per month, it's only charcoal, it's not a precious product, so the price is exaggerated, it should be even more affordable.

Good product, nothing to complain about, after having filtered the water with the pearls and the carbon, no more unpleasant taste. It is obviously necessary to carry out certain manipulations before the first filtration and between the filterings (for the coal) but it is nothing compared to all the plastic bottles that I will not buy any more. Moreover, the customer service is very reactive.

Product totally in accordance with what I expected, thank you!

Good quality, good balance. Received quickly.

Top notch, keeps all its promises, the water is really filtered, and this mineral water taste stands out very well.

perfect

I have already used this type of product that I bought in an organic store. it is impressive how it modifies the water, in any case the taste of the water.

Efficient and ecological. The price is a bit high considering the materials used, but it is still a good buy.

Very good value for money

I already have the ceramic beads of this brand and I am more than satisfied, the water of my town has a taste of chlorine, the beads reduce it strongly, I have thus ABANDONED THE BOTTLES OF MINERAL WATER.Recently traces of pesticides were detected so I opted for this activated carbon which PURIFIES WATER, it is necessary to boil the carbon 10min before the first use, to let it cool, then it is necessary to let rest the carbon in the carafe in MINIMUM 4H, 8H being the ideal.It will be necessary to boil it every month, at the end of 6 months the coal must be changed and can be used for example of fertilizer for the plants.this mark is committed for the planet and transfers 1% of the selling price to an NGO for the reforestation of our planet.if useful thank you to click?

RAS

Perfect. Nothing to say.

I use them in my water carafe and in my kettle to remove the taste of bleach from the tap water. It works very well, the water has a neutral taste and I make a gesture for the planet by not buying water in plastic bottles!

Very good product

thank you

Fast answers and courtesy. Thank you very much for your time.

We were already using binchotan sticks to purify our water and these pearls are the perfect complement to treat limescale.We respected the advice of quantity of pearls per liter and put some in all the tanks, bottles and kettle.The result is not perfect but still amazing.Most of the tanks had the white bottom of limescale, but it is not the case anymore. We used to clean the limestone with white vinegar every 2 months or so, but this will no longer be necessary thanks to the pearls.in short, we are delighted and it is absolutely worth the price because we gain a lot.
