A friend of mine told me about Sawyer Water filters. I looked at them, and it looks interesting, but wanted to see if anyone on the board has used them before. Products | Sawyer Thanks for any feedback.
The key to that type of backwash filter is utterly clean water for backflushing, and near OR level of sanitation while handling the filter change. You can extend the filter operating life with something that takes out the big pieces.
I use a Sawyer Mini. It can be used as an inline filter or standalone. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TOX6UM6/?tag=survivalmonke-20
