Rinse Iou-Sen (Stones) and Bin-Cho-Tan (Charcoals)
with water. DO NOT use detergent!
Both Iou-Sen & Bin-Cho-Tan can deodorize and
filter out impurities in the water such as nitrate,
nitrite, chlorine, bacteria, etc. Bin-Cho-Tan can also
release healthful mineral and Iou-Sen can stabilize
the pH of the water between 7.2 and 7.4.
Place Iou-Sen at the bottom, Bin-Cho-Tan at the top,
put them into the cartridge which Hario Pot has provided.
Pour water from water-cleaner directly into Hario
Cartridge Pot.
Place the Pot into fridge for 5 to 6 hours and it
will be ready for you to drink. It is recommended not
to put the Pot in room temperature.
We suggest you consuming the water within 2 to 3 days.
There might be a “taste” from the water
for the first or second times; if you do not like it,
make it again, and the “taste” should be
going away.
You might find a little powder in the water of the
Pot. These are produced by Iou-Sen which are harmless.
It is recommended to replace Iou-Sen and Bin-Cho-Tan
once every six-month.
Used Iou-Sen can be used for gardening or potted plants
and used Bin-Cho-Tan can be placed in shoe-cabinet for
deodorization.
