AVAILABLE NOW: Sawyer Mini Water Filter Bucket Kit

I have in stock a large supply of Sawyer Mini Water Filter Bucket Kits and they are ready to ship. If you are not familiar with this kit, it allows the popular Sawyer Mini Water Filter to be adapted for bucket use. The advantage of using this kit with the Sawyer is providing large volumes of filter, clean water for multiple people.

See below for more information on this simple and inexpensive accessory for the Sawyer Water Filter.

I appreciate the interest that has been shown regarding the Sawyer Mini Water Filter Bucket Kit. I have enjoyed using the Sawyer Mini Water Filter. It is simple to operate, reliable, and inexpensive. The biggest drawback of the Sawyer is using it with multiple people. It can be done but you’re either all sucking on the same straw or using a lot of time and energy filling small bags or bottles with dirty water and squeezing through the filter. I figured there had to be a better way to use this great filter.

Enter: the Sawyer Mini Water Filter Bucket Kit.

This simple kit adapts the Sawyer for bucket use. Once a hole is drilled in the supply bucket the components are assembled(instructions included) – and then the Sawyer is attached. That’s it.

Currently, the needed drill bit is not included as I didn’t want to add the expense for something that people may have already. Regardless – any local Harbor Freight, Home Depot or Lowe’s carries the bit and of course Amazon.

Actual Trial With the Sawyer Bucket Kit.

#1: Started with a bucket and threw in a bunch of dirt and added a couple gallons of water.

#2: Used a towel as a pre-filter to remove the larger particles.

#3: Towel caught the larger sediment/contaminants. A finer pre-filter for capturing more of the larger particles would be suggested(coffee filters good for this).

#4: Below the contaminated water ready to go through the Sawyer.

#5: Filtering operation in progress.

#6: Close up of the stream of filtered water exiting the filter.

#7:  This is what the non-filtered water looked like pre-filtering.

#8: Filtered water is crystal clear after using the Sawyer Mini Water Filter Bucket Kit.

The results are impressive. It is not surprising the water looked crystal clear after all that is what is supposed to happen. Flow rate was excellent at around 5-6 gallons an hour.

I drank the entire glass of filtered water and found it had no off-taste and tasted like….well…..clean water. While this test was dealing with only sediment and suspended particles in water, the Sawyer also excels at removing pathogens and bacteria.

Currently, the kit is priced at $9.99 with free shipping which is a bargain. Add the Sawyer Mini Water Filter for around $20 and a high volume water filtration system can be put together for around $30. Not bad.
