Brita Filter with Timer and Display
I got the new Brita water filtering can (our third by now, we really use those things a lot to make tea, coffee and soda-club lemonade) and it beats having to drag plastic bottles of water from the store, not to mention a lot of space in the plastic container. Ours is called the elemaris Birta meter and it measures how much you filter, how long you are using the filter and the water hardness. I am curious to know how it compares to our previous filter, which only measured time and wanted replacement of the filter cartridge every four weeks. The taste will be exactly the same as it uses the same filter cartridge.
The funny thing is that the display also shows when you are filtering water by animating water droplets
The measuring element consists of a display with two metal prongs of different length. The good thing is that this one is removable so you can finally wash the filter lid, which was not possible with the previous model as the electronics were not dishwasher proof.
I have replaced the filter on my classic elemaris and on the new elemaris on the same day and I’ll let you know when they will ask for replacement cartridges (the classic will ask in four weeks time)
