This is a field test of a very simple and inexpensive homemade water filter setup made from a recycled coffee creamer container, a Brita water filter and one 2 inch rubber O-ring. The setting for this test is beautiful Norway Lake located inside Puzzle Lake Provincial Park, Canada. Please rate this video. Thanks for watching!
