If you want the best water bottle filter out there, there is always http://www.lifesaversystems.com/ :) But that thing is expensive.

Yes, Barry, a water filter. You can get a reverse osmosis hand pump that will let you drink "brita quality" water from the dirtiest lake and it's light too. I use it when going backpacking. You can fill up a large container and pour it out as needed. I've never used a brita bottle, so I can't speak to it's effectiveness regarding taste, but if it uses a charcoal filter it will get rid of the sulfur smell/taste.

Anybody know what can be done to get rid of that "rotten egg" taste in water? The last time I went to Bong, where I met up with "Cezar" , We used a well that had a taste of sulfur. Since then, I bought a Brita filter bottle. Will that work or am I going to have to buy purification tablets?
