Our take on the Big Berkey System + Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition Filter Elements

The Big Berkey is a gravity-fed water filter built from polished AISI 304 stainless steel. It holds about 2.25 gallons (8.5 liters) and ships with two Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition filter elements, with room for up to four. Two elements push roughly 3.5 gallons per hour; four reach about 7 gallons per hour. It suits households of one to four people and doubles as an emergency supply that can serve dozens of people a day when fully loaded. Against plastic pitcher filters it filters far more water per fill and needs no plumbing or power, but it is bulkier, heavier at 7 lbs empty, and slower than under-sink systems.

About the Big Berkey System + Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition Filter Elements

The Big Berkey System is a gravity-fed water filtration system. It comes with 2 Phoenix Gravity New Millennium Edition filter elements and can be expanded to 4. It is made for everyday use at home by small to medium families, and its compact design makes it easy to use while traveling.

The upper and lower chambers are made of highly polished AISI 304 stainless steel. The upper chamber nests within the lower chamber for transport. The system holds about 2.25 gallons (8.5 liters).

With two filter elements, the system produces up to 3.5 gallons (13.3 liters) per hour. With four, it produces up to 7.0 gallons (26.5 liters) per hour. These rates are calculated with the upper chamber full to the top, and the flow rate decreases as the water level declines. Up to 4 Berkey PF-2 Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Filters can be installed in the lower chamber if desired.
