Basically I'm so cheap that I can't afford top shelf vodka or a Brita Filter (Note: I'm in college). So really I'm asking for a better, CHEAPER alternative to filtering vodka (assuming you believe in the whole cheap stuff thats filtered multiple times is just as goo as top shelf). Any sugestions would be great! Thanks!
Splurge for the 151... you'll need less... it'll last longer.
Otherwise, I can't imagine that 'filtering' the vodka is going to have any positive effects (probably a huge waste of time...). Perhaps you should be more creative with the mixers you choose. I've served some pretty shitty vodka in some pretty yummy drinks... And some were none the wiser.
This is an inexpensive homemade water filter setup. Made from a coffee creamer container, a Brita Water Filter and a 2 inch rubber O-Ring. There ...
I know that those brita filters can filter out impurities in cheap booze and make them taste alot better. I was wondering if it could filter out the alcohol in mouthwash?
I guess I phrased my question wrong.
I want the alcohol seperated from everything else in the mouthwash. So I want everything else filtered out.
No because alcohol isn't the only liquid used in mouthwash. Also filtering doesn't separate liquids only removes the solids. Oh and please don't follow up with a question asking if you can filter NyQuil. LOL!

Filter uses an ion resin exchange to reduce lead, copper, mercury, cadmium, zinc, and other impurities from drinking water
Filters should be changed every 40 gallons or 2 months; do not use with microbiologically unsafe water
Slim water pitcher with filter from Brita
I've heard a little about fluoride in sink water and i was wondering what all the noise is about. Also, i don't want to get cancer or anything so i was wondering how accurate a Brita filter pitcher is in removing these harmful additives, thanks in advanced! Tyler
Many people have died or become sick due to the toxic effects of fluoride. It is highly reactive, it is a neurotoxin, and it is carcenogenic at even low levels. Both the Nazis and the US studied fluoride as a poison gas for use during WWII.
Even the small amount of fluoride added to domestic water systems cause flurosis and brittle bones among a percentage of the population. The supposed benefits in use to prevent caries is hotly disputed. The original funding for a flawed study in the 1930s was funded by Alcoa (to help minimize negative impact of the many poisonings due to this dangerous waste product). Fertilizer plant flue gases are trapped in water and shipped directly to municiple water systems.
A traditional water filter does not remove fluoride. You need either a reverse osmosis filter or a distiller. The filters are expensive and must be replaced, and the distiller removes minerals which would perhaps cause de-minerization of your bones.
Get informed by buying "The Fluoride Deception" and reading information on the Internet. WARNING: You can count on glossy articles written for corporate media outlets by staff writers to be totally inept, incomplete, and misleading.

Does the water running through the filter in one of the Brita pitchers really purify the water as claimed? I know what their marketing says but outside of that can it work the way they claim?
According to the Brita site,
"The Brita Water Filtration Pitcher has been tested and certified by NSF International, the nation's leading testing authority for water filtration products."
The NSF site has lots of information about what contaminants may be in your water and how to find out more about your local water supply.
I have a brita water filter and I followed the directions when I opened the filter and soaked it for 15 minutes and I have been filtering water for a couple months now. Do I still need to keep it soaked in water all the time now? I don't always remember to fill it up so I was just wondering if it was unhealthy or not good or something...
You can always look up their website or call the company to make sure if it needs to be or not..but I don't keep mine wet 24/7 and I don't have a problem with mine at all. Makes me wonder though if you are right.

Tap water
For years now, I've had a Brita filter in my kitchen - probably about as long as I've lived in New York City. I started keeping it not so much out of fear of New York City's tap water, which is supposed to be among the best tap waters in the country, but because it was nice to always have a cool pitcher of water waiting in the fridge. Somehow it seemed so much more appealing than water straight from the tap.
I've never been good at changing the Brita filter on time, though - I sometimes let more than a month slide by after the filter "expires." I knew this wasn't ideal behavior, but I didn't take the Brita guidelines very seriously. I figured it was sort of like shampoo, where the instructions are really meant to make you use twice as much of the product as you actually need.
Well, it turns out that I was wrong! The friend who I visited in San Francisco last weekend is married to a marine biologist, and we had an interesting conversation about the Brita. They drink their water straight from the tap, as San Francisco water quality is also apparently excellent. My friend's husband explained that bottled water is actually not as safe as good tap water, because you never know what happened to it during the shipping process - how many times those plastic bottles were exposed to very high temperatures, which could cause the plastic to leech into the water. That's when I admitted in a very blase way that I use a Brita but do not change it regularly.
...Brita Filter Jugs Are Better For The Environment
Brita Filter Jugs Are Better For The Environment
I recently read that if all the empty bottles that were used for shipping drinking water were stacked end to end they would stretch to the moon and back - 56 times! That’s a lot of bottles and the majority of them (the best estimate is 75%) go to landfill - although they are capable of being recycled. I also read that the manufacturing process requires three times as much water as the finished bottle contains - it seems crazy. That’s why I use a Brita filter jug - it’s a lot kinder to the environment and I save a lot of money when compared to bottled water prices as well.
