I had done a limescale test once, and I have limescale water at my tap, so I wanted to try these ceramic beads. I did several tests and I don't feel any difference in the taste, but I didn't have any limescale test left... So I don't have an objective test. So I didn't have an objective test, so I went on the net to see if the effectiveness of the ceramic beads was proven, and apart from some dubious sites, I didn't find anything... So I can neither confirm nor deny the effectiveness of these balls. If I can find a test, I will do it because I am really curious. If only to preserve the longevity of water-based appliances such as coffee machines, kettles, irons and others... Because so far, everything I've found is ineffective (filtering carafe, charcoal, etc, etc...).

Interesting alternative to the Binchotan (charcoal stick) because it is reusable for life.avoids the use of plastic: bottle, well known filter carafe and its not eco-friendly filters.the result is satisfactory, even if I find it a little less obvious than the Binchotan.ecological and economical

I admit that I was a little skeptical, but finally it works.Before the first use, you will have to boil it, then wait a good ten minutes before putting it in a water carafe. Wait then between 4 and 8 hours.the first ones, we don't feel too much the difference, but after a month, and after a second passage in the kettle, indeed, the taste is not the same one as with the one of the tap.On the other hand, no, it is not really effective against the limestone.I use the water filtered with this charcoal for my kettle and, even if I have to clean it a little less often, there is still limestone that settles.6 months life stick, to be boiled every month.Correct price (6 sticks, 3 years of use).The sticks are biodegradable, if you have a compost you can put them in.1In short, a nice discovery.

The comments are good so I'm trying it out. this is the beginning for me. my city's water is very hard and if these ceramic beads allow me to stop buying bottled water, it will be great.

Very efficient, the Orinko ceramic beads are the first ones I used more than a year ago, and I'm delighted because to this day they still haven't moved.it's a much easier product to use than filters or carbon-based sticks, which have a much shorter life span.It is an excellent product, which is deposited directly at the bottom of a carafe and / or a tank of electric machine (coffee machine, central steam, ...), to purify and soften the water contained. The water treated in this way is very good to drink, it keeps all its qualities and taste intact.As for the tanks of the machines, the pearls will act directly on the limestone and thus avoid any deposit of tartar, which in the long term tends to disturb their good functionings.they can be used also in its refrigerator to preserve the fruits and vegetables longer, it is enough for that to simply deposit them at the bottom of the vegetable tray.This box contains a total of 80 pearls, which is more than enough to equip several carafes, a coffee machine, a central steamer, a kettle and the crisper.with an exceptional value for money, I highly recommend these Orinko pearls.

Batch of 80 pearls to soften the tap water. After 15 days of use of these pearls the result is satisfactory.they really improve the taste of water by removing that of chlorine and lime depositsWithout filters and without chemicals these pearls made from clay neutralize the lime deposits of your gourds and your kettles.10 pearls are enough for 1l of water and the saving on the purchase of filters is not negligible.to use the eyes closed.Do not use with non-drinking water!

It's quite simple, since I discovered these things, I only use them. I never trusted plastic filter cartridges, but frankly, besides the result (clean water with no aftertaste, neutral ph), one stick lasts for six months. It's simple and very effective.

I am quite satisfied with my purchase. The bag contains 4 sticks of Binchotan. It turns out that they are authentic, to do the test, just tap 2 sticks to hear a metallic noise. The yellow sticker proves its authenticity, the water loses the taste of tap water (limestone and chlorine) without removing all the nutrients because the binchotan releases nutrients good and necessary for our health.I just think it's a pity that the 3 sticks are not of similar sizes: There are 2 sticks of size M and one very small one (more adapted to a bottle of 1L rather than 1l5). To reactivate it, boil it in water during 15 minutes, as soon as you feel that the water loses in quality.

It's practical, natural and doesn't require any equipment except for a bottle with a big neck. I can't say if it's really efficient, but at worst, it doesn't hurt. I read a lot of articles about the purification benefits of charcoal.

Very nice discovery.not knowing much about the use of white charcoal.As for the use, it is very simple. You just have to boil the stick 10 minutes before the first use, then renew it once a month.the rest of the time, you just have to leave the charcoal in the carafe and put water in it.I have to say that the result has bluffed me. Indeed, I did not think that it would have a real impact on the taste of the water and yet, it is the case. My tap water doesn't taste very good but with these charcoal sticks, the unpleasant taste goes away directly, making the water taste very good. Each stick should last 6 months. Each stick should last for 6 months, so with this batch of 6 sticks, you can last 3 years.be careful, for a real effect, you have to let the stick infuse for a minimum of 4 hours and a maximum of 8 hours. Personally I leave it 8 hours in order not to have any more bad taste.

Great product, arrived perfectly packaged, each piece of coal was individually wrapped, perfect for glass bottles due to its small width, no unpleasant taste or deposit even after the bottle is almost empty. I would recommend

I found tap water undrinkable and hated the taste of water filtered in a brita, I was surprised. Tap water not only loses its chemical taste but also takes on the taste of spring water. I never drink spring water anymore and drink at least one liter of filtered water every day. I filter 1,5l in a glass bottle during 4h and it's perfect. Be careful not to leave it too long, otherwise the water takes on a slight charcoal taste.

I have been using it for a week now every day to purify tap water. There is no particular taste. The sticks are a bit fragile because the first one I used broke when I put it in the carafe.
