FAQs
How long does the charcoal filter last?
Each Binchotan charcoal filter lasts up to 6 months. You can 'recharge' it every 3 months by boiling it for 10 minutes to reactivate its filtering properties.
Can I use this bottle with liquids other than water?
The bottle is primarily designed for water filtration. Using other liquids may affect the charcoal's performance and the bottle's longevity.
What if the charcoal filter breaks?
Broken charcoal pieces will still function for filtering. If you prefer a new one, you can purchase replacements.
Is the bottle dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand wash the glass bottle and lid to maintain its quality and longevity. The silicone seal can be removed for cleaning.
What materials is the lid made of?
The lid is made from natural wood fibres, stainless steel, and a silicone ring. The underside cap is stainless steel to ensure no plastic contacts your water.
Does the bottle keep water cold?
The recycled polyester sleeve provides some insulation to help keep water cool for a period.
What is the volume of the bottle?
The bottle has a volume of 650 ml.

Ensure the screw lid is tightly fastened and the silicone seal is correctly placed and intact.

Recharge the charcoal filter by boiling it for 10 minutes. If it is older than 6 months (or 3 months since last recharge), it may need replacement.
