Unpacking, rinse the container, activate the filter and then put in the water tank.
The water tastes very good, the purchase of water at the grocery store you can actually save, just like the permanent descaling coffee maker, kettle and Co.
In regions where the water has a high carbon hardness (here in Hesse unfortunately almost everywhere) is the water filter for - untroubled in the truest sense of the word coffee and tea enjoyment indispensable. In the regions where I am staying regularly tea or coffee can be not drunk with clean tap water in my opinion, because the taste is simply disgusting and floating on the tea right "calcareous plates" - Disgusting! With the Brita filter, however, these problems belong to the past - Tea and coffee are again a real pleasure.
The indicator for filter replacement in the lid is also very convenient, you always know when a filter change is due.
A small point of criticism there are also: There are sometimes small black suspended from the filter in the water visible, but they are completely harmless and can be safely mitgetrunken. Los can these suspended after manual disclosures by the filter again thoroughly washed - that I have not yet been made, as these do not interfere with suspended solids and are barely perceptible.
