Kishu Charcoal To Go is the ideal way to bring filtered water on the go; the gym, the car, your bicycle. Ideally placed in any 12-16 ounce water bottle, Kishu begins working immediately bonding with toxins in tap water. We recommend adding tap water in the evening for use the next day. Optimal filtration time 1-2 hours.

Enjoy the taste of natural spring water with Kishu Charcoal. To renew, simply boil gently in a shallow pan of water for 5 minutes, allow to dry out for 20 minutes before reusing. One stick lasts 4 months.

____

Kishu Charcoal is ready to use upon opening the package. Simply place in your water bottle and add tap water. Kishu begins adsorbing impurities immediately* while also imparting healthy minerals like calcium and magnesium. These give your water a delicious, clean taste.

*While Kishu begins working immediately bonding with toxins, for optimal adsorption add Kishu To-Go to approximately 16 oz of water for 1 hour prior to use.

Care:

Kishu Charcoal should be boiled once per month to keep its pores open. Simply place in a shallow pan of water and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Allow to dry for 30 minutes before reusing. While a small amount of flaking may occur, the stick will stay completely intact; Kishu will NEVER deteriorate. After four months, Kishu should be replaced. Please use the handy boiling schedule, located inside the package label, to keep track of your Kishu stick’s life.

Second Life:

Kishu Charcoal has great secondary uses: absorbing odors in the refrigerator (better than baking soda!) or mixed into your garden soil where it will help improve water absorption.
