Any experience with P&G water purifier packets

Oops, I forgot to add a link to the P&G site – https://www.pg.com/csdw/pur-packet-technology.shtml

Well, that’s interesting.  I am not a chemist, but I’m wondering if P&G is using a flocculent and some sort of chlorine-based disinfectant to achieve that yummy tap water taste.  It will be interesting to see if others have experience with this product.

I knew about that stuff, but I didnt know it was called “flocculents”

New fav word

The Colorado River at the Little Colorado confluence –

The “Water Plant” –

ChloroFloc

After 30 minutes the sludge settles to the bottom of the ziplocks.  The pump isn’t necessary but does improve palatability. Adding a flavored “sport drink” powder also helps with masking the heavy mineralization taste. If you don’t pump, pour carefully to avoid the sludge.

I think the  only downside that i’ve seen so far is the time and each packet is for 10L but not sure if it can be used for smaller batches
