High quality Millbank Bag
Top quality bag from Forest Fundamentals, Love the fact is has the instructions for use printed on the side of it, perfect for someone who may not know how to use it in a situation where the main user can’t. Nice little carry pouch as well, Highly recommend

Useful filtration bag for water purification.
Nice water filter. I wanted this for wild camping and preparedness. Nice clear instructions. Not used yet. FYI this is only the first stage of filtration and you will need a filter or purification tabs after you have used this.

Classic way to filter water
A trusted way to filter large impurities from water. Filtered water still needs water purification tablets.

Excellent 'FIRST STAGE' outdoor water filtration product.
Great product used for initial stage of cleaning up water colected from a flowing stream or non domestic source. Design based on military issue. Really well made, suspect it will last a lifetime. My primary use is to stop the Sawyer Squeeze water filter filments getting blocked so quickly by microscopic dirt particles. Used together they can provide confidence but also suggest to carry a few water purification tabs or take collected water to a rolling boil. I learnt the hard back in the 70's never to trust any outdoor water source.

Forest Essentials' Millbank Bag performs very good
I used the Millbank bag in the Netherlands at a small pool (31U ET 99102 05162). This water was full of algae and was also peaty. The Millbank bag is easy to use and filters well and quickly. The filtered water was clear but still the color of peat. Of course, I had to boil the water afterwards. The bag is easily field maintainable.

Grande. Algodón muy tupido. Con todas las instrucciones en la bolsa (ingles) para no depender de papeles. Viene con funda de transporte. Me gusta pero me parece caro.

Les coupures d’alimentation en eau du réseau domestique sont assez courantes chez moi. Plutôt que d’acheter et stocker des bouteilles d’eau, j’ai préféré m’équiper d’un système de filtration me permettant de m’approvisionner dans les points d’eau autour de chez moi : sources, étangs, etc. Afin de prolonger la vie de mon filtre Sawyer, il me fallait un moyen de préfiltration. C’est ce que fait ce sac. Et il le fait très bien ! Ce modèle est basé sur celui qui était en dotation dans les forces armées britanniques. Il s’agit d’un simple sac en toile de coton à la trame très serrée.La mise en ouevre est facile. Après avoir cassé les fibres du sac en le malaxant longuement et soigneusement dans l’eau, il suffit de le remplir à fond, et de laisser couler l’eau jusqu’au trait de repère afin de rincer la paroi du sac. Puis on dépose un récipient sous le sac pour collecter l’eau clarifiée, Très franchement, en remplissant le sac sous le robinet de l’évier et en voyant à quelle vitesse l’eau s’écoulait, j’ai cru que j’avais gaspillé mon argent. J’ai donc fait un test chez moi en préparant dans un seau tout rouillé un véritable bouillon de culture, puis j’ai versé le contenu dans le sac. Et j’ai été stupéfait : regardez la photo et comparez l’eau avant et après ! Je n’en revenais pas. C’est nettement mieux, et de loin, que mes essais avec des moyens de fortune, bandana, torchon, chapeau de brousse, housses diverses et variées et j’en passe. Outre son efficacité indéniable , ce produit a en outre l’immense avantage d’être simple à mettre en oeuvre et à entretenir : on rince et on laisse sécher. Il a une durée de vie théoriquement illimitée. Le tout pour un tarif raisonnable. C’est donc un gros 5 étoiles que je lui attribue.

Un prodotto decisamente valido ben costruito con un prezzo buono. Da portare sempre in escursione per contenere frutti selvatici oppure filtro acqua anche per sciogliere neve.

This millbank bag is exceptional and works wonderfully for pre-filtering turbid water sources before running the water through your final filtration system--great way to save your filters! The bag is nice, well made, filters nicely, but is pretty expensive when compared to other options that work just as well. $20.00 isn't going to break the bank, but this product does cost almost double that of other options that work just as well for pre-filtering. That said, you do get bushcrafty bragging rights of saying that your millbank bag was "handmade in the UK." And if you say this with an English accent while carving a feather stick, you will surely impress your friends with a definite cool factor that isn't available with just any 'ole millbank bag.
