Quick Answer
The Sawyer Mini filter is enhanced by accessories such as a collapsible water container, a filter cleaning syringe, and a drinking straw with a built-in filter protector.
Carrying and Storing Water
A collapsible water container, such as the Sawyer Mini Collapsible Water Container, is a great accessory for the Sawyer Mini filter. This BPA-free container can hold up to 1 liter of water and has a built-in spout for easy drinking. Using this container allows users to carry and store water efficiently, reducing the need for multiple trips to a water source.
Cleaning and Maintaining the Filter
A filter cleaning syringe, such as the Sawyer Filter Cleaning Syringe, is essential for maintaining the Sawyer Mini filter. This syringe allows users to backflush the filter, removing debris and contaminants that can reduce the filter’s effectiveness. To clean the filter, insert the syringe into the filter’s outlet and push 4-6 ounces of water through the filter using a gentle pressure of 10-15 pounds per square inch (PSI).
Accessories for Drinking and Protection
A drinking straw with a built-in filter protector, such as the Sawyer Mini Drinking Straw, is a convenient accessory for the Sawyer Mini filter. This straw allows users to drink directly from the filter without having to tilt their head or remove the filter from the container. The built-in filter protector also prevents large debris from entering the straw, making it safer and more convenient to drink from the filter.
