Guide Review - GraviTEA Filter Pitcher
A simple water filter pitcher, with one added feature that makes it stand out compared to others I have tried. There is a little digital readout in the handle that counts down the days from when you changed the filter cartridge. No more guessing when you need a new filter. You do need to reset the timer when you change filters though, that part is not automatic.Like with any filter pitcher, you add tap water to the top chamber, and it filters down into the bottom chamber where you pour from. The wait time is minimal, as the water flows very quickly through the filter cartridge.
The filtered water is extremely crisp tasting, with no lingering chlorine flavour. And its no surprise that better tasting water makes for better tasting coffee. It was definitely stronger in flavor, and though I can't say I normally taste chlorine in my coffee, the taste was different.
