Why choose an infuser carafe on a daily basis?
A healthy reflex
No more sugary drinks filled with artificial sweeteners. To follow the nutritional recommendations, an adult must consume between 6 and 8 glasses of water per day, or 1.5 liters on average. The pitcher thus promotes good hydration.
The infuser filter purifies and mineralizes tap water to remove its unpleasant taste. On the other hand, the infuser carafe makes it possible to obtain quality water and to reassure in relation to the persistent mistrust vis-à-vis the public network.
The carafe is a healthy product. Indeed, it is equipped with a silicone seal with a stainless steel end, which means that the silicone never comes into contact with the liquid present in the infuser carafe.
A practical and ecological object
Adopting an infuser carafe for your daily hydration is a good way to avoid bottled water. No more packs that should not be forgotten at shopping time and carried to the pantry. Just turn on the tap and drink drinking water from the public network. A small eco-responsible gesture that every day helps to fight against the scourge of plastic pollution. Fewer disposable bottles means less waste, but also fewer resources mobilized for their production.
Not to mention that an infuser carafe made of elegant and durable materials will make a lot more impact on your table than a disposable bottle. It is a designer container that lends itself to all occasions: family meals, dinner with friends...
An economical accessory
The infuser carafe represents an investment in the purchase to which is added the maintenance of the infusion system . Despite everything, its durability allows savings to be made in the medium and long term. In fact, water bottled in plastic is 100 to 300 times more expensive than tap water.
On the other hand, filtered water is better for health, but also for household appliances. By limiting the limescale deposit in the kettle or coffee machine, their lifespan is extended.
How to use a filter jug with a charcoal stick?
Different methods can be used to purify tap water. Carafes with plastic cartridges are well known. They are composed of ion exchange resin balls or activated carbon of vegetable origin. Yet other natural and zero-waste processes are able to absorb impurities from tap water. This is the case of activated carbon sticks used alone.
Immersed in water thanks to the basket of the infuser carafe , the activated carbon will retain chlorine and even certain heavy metals such as copper, mercury or lead. At the same time, it will release minerals essential to our body, such as calcium or potassium.
Before first use, the charcoal stick must be activated. You just have to boil it for 15 minutes. After this preliminary step, place it in the stainless steel filter of the carafe then add water. You must wait at least 1 hour before drinking the water from the pitcher. But the ideal infusion time to enjoy the benefits of charcoal filtration is 8 hours.
Depending on the frequency of use, after about 1-2 months, the pores of the carbon will have accumulated a lot of impurities. By boiling it again, it will be reactivated and regain its original efficiency. After 6 months it will need to be replaced. Unlike plastic infuser carafe refills, the charcoal stick doesn't end up in the trash. It can be used as a natural deodorant or fertilizer for plants.
Other possible uses of a carafe with stainless steel infuser filter
The advantage of the infuser pitcher with removable basket is that its stainless steel filter is not only intended for the use of a charcoal stick.
It is a versatile accessory that allows you to make infusions or flavored waters just as well. To prepare a lemonade or a detox water, simply place a few slices of fruit in the carafe's removable infusion filter (or infuser filter) and enjoy the stimulating or detoxifying properties. Enough to re-enchant the taste of plain water!
The stainless steel infuser carafes go one step further by offering an insulated function that keeps them cold for 12 hours or hot for 6 hours. The jug adapts to your desires for teas, herbal teas and flavored waters.
