Berkey Water Filters

I am wanting to purchase a Berkey Water Filter for our 28F FC. We usually travel with 2 adults and our 2 Cairn Terriers. Can anyone offer any info about the best size Berkey Filter to purchase?

We use a travel Berkey in the Airstream and find it sufficient. We also travel with 3 dogs but usually don’t use the Berkey for the dogs.[ATTACH]

We use the “Big Berkey” and it fits just fine under our counter in our Flying Cloud. It makes more than enough water for two people. We use it for drinking water and cooking water.

We use the Big Berkey too. I wouldn't go smaller. Then again we go through a fair amount of water.

I just ordered a Travel Berkey. I'd like to have gotten a Big Berkey but that wouldn't fit under our kitchen cabinets at home.

Where do you store your Big Berkey when on the road?

We put ours on the floor wedged up against a backpack or the like.

I used to take it all apart but dont anymore. Just dump all the water.

Over 10,000 miles towing with no problem yet.

We have a Berkey Light (2.75 gals, BPA free plastic). For two of us and a couple dogs it's been fine. Mainly for coffee, tea, and cooking. We generally don't use it for the dogs.
