I discovered filtering carbons with this product and the brand Orinko. Their website is full of information but is not always up to date, especially concerning import legislation, but they are very reactive to emails, which is always a pleasure.So you will find charcoals from different origins in Japan but their efficiency remains the same.In the size S of the product, you will find 100g of pieces of oak charcoal which makes 4 or 5 pieces.knowing that you need about 50g to filter 1 liter of water, it's up to you to adjust the quantity to the size of your carafe.to begin the use of a charcoal, you have to boil it during 10 minutes. To start using a charcoal, boil it for 10 minutes, reactivate it in the same way after one month and it will have a life of 6 months.the constraining side is to organize to let the water filter during 8 hours (optimal time) and to dry the charcoal between two uses. (Gustatively I find the water "softer", more "round" in mouth and my tea is much better.Having the possibility to analyze the water, I made compare samples of tap water, water filtered by a cartridge and water filtered by a charcoal and the result is without appeal, it is the Binchotan which prevails.The disadvantage is that it is necessary to anticipate the quantity of water to be prepared but it is all a question of organization.I also saw carafes with a filter to put the carbon, supposedly to optimize the transport but honestly I do not see the interest of it considering the duration of filtration.One could also wonder about a possible radioactivity but the product is tested on the spot and has an export authorization. (My husband also tested the radioactivity in his laboratory)

I have been using siwak for many years and often the smell is unpleasant whereas here the smell is very light, ideal to brush the teeth without having the toxic products which contain the toothpastes advised by the lobby of the dentists. Moreover the siwak does not generate any waste and lasts a long time, it is enough to cut the stick as one goes along.

This set of 6 charcoals comes in a cardboard package. Contrary to those I usually use, these are made of bamboo and not of oak and are smaller in size. The duration of use is from 2 to 4 weeks, contrary to the oak charcoals whose lifespan is 6 months. The appearance of white spots on its charcoal means that it has reached the end of its life and that it is time to recycle it.the use is simple and noted in French directly on the packaging in tiny writing but one has the possibility of claiming by mail the notice in E-Book format.this system is really simple, ecological and economic because each stick lasts until 6 months and then one can recycle it in various ways: ???? ??????????????????????. If you have a garden, you can crumble it and put it in the compost, or directly mix it with the soil. It will also be useful in the soil of a potted plant, acting as a fertilizer and pH regulator. ?'???????????????? ?????????? ??????????????????????????????????? ???????? ?????? ???? ????????????. It can be used to keep out insects like mosquitoes, which like moisture. ???? ???? ?????????????????????????, you can put it where you store your shoes for example. ??'???????????????? ?????????? ??????????????????? ??'?????????? ??????????????????????????????????????. The charcoal dissipates the electromagnetic waves of the computers: place it between you and your device, without covering it. It can be broken or not. Before using it, it will be necessary to put it in boiling water 10 mn. Gesture to renew once every 2 to 4 weeks. Then, we let rest the charcoal in a bottle or carafe 1 to 4 h. Considering that these bamboo charcoals are of small sizes, I can put them directly in my glass bottle or my gourd the necessary time. Then, I let it dry in the open air waiting to be used again... The water has no taste, no color... The water has no taste, no color... It is totally clear and in addition the carbon is supposed to filter heavy metals and chemicals, but it has no effect on limescale, and in addition it is beneficial to health because it releases minerals and trace elements.a great discovery! A healthier water, less waste, ecological & economical, recyclable and 1% of the sale price is given to a ?????????????????? ???? ??????????????????????????.???????????????????? ????????????????!? ??

These sticks are perfect for purifying tap water and removing the little unpleasant tastes that we sometimes have some days.I first put the sticks in the bottom of the carafe that I then fill with water.They act quickly.It may seem a little expensive but in fact there are for a hell of a lot of time so no it's a very good value for money for this kind of simple and effective product.

Being concerned about my health as well as ecology, I try to eliminate as much as possible the consumption of waste and plastic. Bottled water is an element that I thought I would never be able to do without... I can't stand the taste of tap water, which is also very hard in my region... My husband was not really enthusiastic when I talked to him about it, but finally he is totally convinced and it's been several months now that we don't buy any more water pack!The use is very simple, everything is explained directly on the package, an ebook is also available.the taste of water is top, in addition to that, the activated carbon has the power to absorb heavy metals and chemicals and release minerals and trace elements.we save money and time and waste. A superb discovery that we do not hesitate to recommend to our guests who are surprised and curious when they see this piece in our carafe. I hope that my opinion has been useful to you.

We have been using his charcoal sticks for some time now and we are very satisfied.it really removes the bad taste of tap water, brings calcium, iron and magnesium, and improves the transit naturally.for the use, it is simple: 1 stick for 1L of water, 2 sticks for 2L of water.You have to boil it 10 to 15min in a pot of boiling water, then put it in a carafe, a big gourd or a reusable plastic bottle (it's not the best but that's what we did).and then you have to let it work, filter it during 4h minimum, 8h at best.I drank it after 2 hours and there was still a little taste of tap water.so you really have to wait to get the benefits.you have to boil it again every month, 10 to 15 minutes in a pot of boiling water.1 Charcoal is usable for 6 months. After that, it can be used as a deodorant or as a fertilizer, but it does not filter limescale, and you should avoid drinking the stagnant water in the carafe if you have not touched it for 48 hours. It will be necessary just to renew the water and to wait ideally 8 hours.In the hope that my comment will be useful to you

In order to stop buying bottled water (for the wallet and the environment) I tried the Charcoal Sticks to slip into the carafe! It works well. There is not even as much scale in the coffee maker... The water doesn't taste like bleach anymore. I am very happy. Each stick lasts several weeks. I empty the carafe when not in use to avoid wearing it out.

Our water is ultra calcareous, but it just feels like drinking spring water. Just disgusted not to have thought of buying it earlier, to try it is to adopt it! With the 80 pearls we have 2 caraphes, 2 bottles and the kettle. I will definitely order again to put some in my washing machine and dishwasher.

This product is in conformity with what is announced in the notice by the manufacturer.it is necessary to put first the water and then the charcoal, if not there is a risk of having splinters of charcoal at the bottom of the bottle.it allows to drink healthy water in all circumstances without giving a particular taste. This product is organic, it is also a good thing.

This carbon is super effective. You don't feel the bad taste of tap water anymore, you feel that the water is purified and enriched with good minerals. Moreover, effective on the duration, and natural! (6 months / coal + to make boil every 1 month) Perfect, I recommend!

Extra, very simple to use and more ecological/economic than a filter carafe or bottled water not always well balanced for the body and creating the worst waste for the earth.The charcoal once prepared as explained was put in a water jar a water never changed for 15 days, only levelled when needed and the water keeps a perfect taste.I recommend!

Now that I know, it will be difficult to do without these charcoal sticks.we don't buy plastic bottles, I find it extremely polluting and we don't have a filter jug either, but the water in our city is not so good and the environment is quite polluted, so I wanted to try the Binchotan, already knowing that charcoal has many qualities (adds minerals and trace elements, filters chemicals and heavy metals).The only small effort to make is to boil your sticks once a month for 6 months (you can do it in rice or pasta water), in order to purify them again, frankly the calculation is quickly done, you can very well give yourself this little trouble to try to fix things a little bit.Here we have 4 glass water bottles that we can fill as much as we want. The water is really perfect to be drunk 4 hours after filling, so the rotation is practical.and there, there is no photo, if you thought that the water has no taste you are going to be surprised! I have the impression to drink the spring of my grandfather, devoid of chemical tastes. What a pleasure, the difference is obvious! 4 sticks is good, it makes us 6 months of water consumption with carbon, I let you do the calculation but in terms of buying water bottles or carafe filters, it's quickly done! No more waste and a real economy. When the carbon stick is no longer effective, it recycles naturally, you can use it for your plants.The little extra of this brand, 1% of the sale price is donated to a reforestation program, what to compensate for carbon emissions related to the transport of Takesumi (a limited transport compared to that of water packs bought in trade this-is) and participate in the fight against deforestation.the charcoal is adopted!

I was looking for a solution to reduce my consumption of plastic bottles, so I tested these charcoal sticks to put in the water to purify it.it seems to work well, the water doesn't taste like it normally does when it comes out of the tap.it's a great alternative to bottled water, I recommend.

The product is 100% what I expected and the service offered by Orinko is great! Their follow-up and knowledge of the products is just perfect. The box arrived in good condition, the sticks are big and dust free, individually packed. The little tips given are also very useful, don't forget to boil your charcoal before its first use. You can also contact me if you have any questions.
