I have started filltering my water for my brew. When I am done I pull the filter apart and dry it. Is this what every one else does? It is a gerneral plastic housing with a 1 micron cartridge.

Kenny i have put two little JG taps on mine so when I have finished I can trap the water inside this will protect it if you keep it in a cool place best not to let it dry out .

when you use again rinse with six litres of water


You should be using a carbon filter to remove the Chlorine and there is a resin /carbon one which removes heavy metal

Do you mean a "Brita" type system - jug with cartridge inserted?

I believe you're supposed to keep them wet - otherwise they dry out and let the water run through without properly filtering. This is why you're supposed to soak it before first use.
