Berkey Light® Water Purifiers & Berkey® Stainless Purifiers

Scroll down to bottom for productsThe Berkey® purification system
removes pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites while extracting chemicals including herbicides, pesticides, organic solvents, VOCs, detergents, cloudiness, silt, sediment, foul tastes and odors. It reduces heavy metals such as cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, aluminum as well as nitrates and nitrites, without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs.

The unique design of Black Berkey® purifier elements combines
the age-old process of micro-porous filtration coupled with modern state-of-the-art technology and the highest quality materials to bring you the finest water purification system available anywhere. The micro-pores within the self-sterilizing and re-cleanable Black Berkey® purification elements are so incredibly small that pathogenic bacteria are simply not able to pass through them.

The media within Black Berkey® elements removes contaminants by a surface phenomenon known as “adsorption” which results from the molecular attraction of substances to the surface of the media. The exclusive purification elements are also impregnated with proprietary media that promote ionic “absorption” of pollutants within the micro-porous elements. Another reason Berkey® systems are so effective in removing contaminants from water is the extremely long “contact period.” Other filtration systems rely on water pressure that forces water molecules through the filters at 60-90 PSI. In such systems, individual water molecules come in contact with the filter media for a mere fraction of a second. Water molecules passing through the revolutionary micro-pore structure of the Black Berkey® purification elements are drawn gently by gravity and stay in contact with the media for several minutes. This makes the Black Berkey® filter media much more efficient in capturing contaminants.

The dramatic superiority of Berkey® water purifiers is illustrated very graphically in the photograph at left. This image shows the upper (pre-treated) section of the Berkey Light® purifier about half full of water containing food coloring. In the lower (purified water) section, which is also about half full, you see clear, uncolored water. The Berkey® purifier’s ability to achieve this level of contaminant separation shows how strikingly superior Berkey® performance is, compared to other purifiers. When bacteria are viewed under a powerful microscope, food coloring is often used as a contrast enhancer to make the bacteria easier to see. Even under magnification sufficient to show the detail in a single bacterium, food coloring still appears only as solid, uniform coloration. Yet the Berkey Light®, as shown here, actually mechanically removes the food coloring from the water — the Berkey® is the only filter system in the world that can do this. And, just as importantly, the beneficial minerals essential to maintain good health are left in the water for your body to use.

The Black Berkey® filter formulation has been tested by State & EPA accredited laboratories to exceed EPA & ANSI/NSF (Std. 53) protocol.

Berkey® Purifiers are available in several configurations. All Berkey® Systems using Black Berkey® purifying elements meet or exceed the EPA’s stringent "7 Log" (99.99999%) contaminant reduction specification. Systems using Black Berkey® elements within transparent Copolyester housings are known as Berkey Light® Purifiers. Systems using Black Berkey® elements within stainless steel housings have the same purifying performance, and are known as Berkey® Stainless Purifiers. The same standards of water purification are achieved in either Copolyester construction (Berkey Light®) or Berkey® Stainless systems with Black Berkey® elements.

Scroll down this page to find the configuration of Berkey Light® or Berkey® Stainless water purifier system that best suits your needs!

Eggs Powered

Powdered Whole eggs are an alternative to fresh eggs that are convenient to use and store. The powder is blended with water to produce liquid eggs, which can then be used just like fresh eggs. 1 pound of powdered whole eggs, when added to water, yields 4 pounds of liquid eggs. One 2.25 pound can of Powdered Whole Eggs is equivalent to 81 to 90 Large Fresh Whole Eggs. Powdered whole eggs can be used for most types of egg dishes or recipes requiring eggs. Powdered egg products are pasteurized and do not require refrigeration.

Mylar Bags, Oxygen Absorbers, Food Storage Buckets, Pails, and other Supply

Your food storage is a precious investment in your family’s future. Mylar bags will add a second line of insurance so that you food will be there when you need it.

Food grade metalized mylar bags add a layer of protection that will seal out light, insects, and oxygen better than just a bucket alone.

What is a Mylar Bag?

Mylar is just an industrial trademarked brand name, like Clorox is just a brand name of bleach.

Mylar is actually the clear part of the bag made from polyester resin. The Mylar bags we use for long term food storage have a foil lining. When Mylar is laminated to aluminum foil it provides additional barrier that acts like a big flexible can!

The best part about Mylar bags is how easy they are to seal at home, you can use anything from your food saver to a hair straighter iron!

Oxygen Absorbers

What Are Oxygen Absorbers?

Oxygen absorbers are made of a chemical compound, the active ingredient of which is a powdered iron oxide. Our absorbers are completely safe. While they are not edible, they are not toxic. No harmful gases are created and the oxygen does not remove the fresh smell and taste of the product.

Oxygen is measured in cubic centimeters (cc). The sizes of our oxygen absorbers correspond to the amount of oxygen they absorb. For example, a 500 cc oxygen absorber will absorb 500 cc of oxygen.

Here are some points to remember when using oxygen absorbers

  • Keep absorbers sealed until ready to use
  • If the little pink indicator tab, has turned blue absorbers are compromised
  • Take out only as many as you can use in 15 min.
  • reseal the bag with a clip it! or in a mason jar.
  • Try to use all your absorbers within 6 months
  • Indicator tab should turn back to pink after package is resealed

How to use Mylar Bags and Oxygen Absorbers in Buckets

Just a bucket/pail may not be enough.

Your food storage is a precious investment in your family’s future. Mylar bags will add a second line of insurance so that you food will be there when you need it.

Bucket and pails are a wonderful way quickly keep your bulk dry foods safe. But they have their cons too. The lid may not seal, they can crack, they can buckle under a vacuum, they can let in light.

Since mylar bags are sealed inside the bucket, mylar bags keep out moisture, oxygen, light, bugs, all the enemies of food storage.

How to store and seal your food in Mylar bags. GET READY... 

1. Gather your supplies



You will need the following

5 or 6 gallon buckets. You can buy them new or ask around at you local bakery for cheap or even free!


Lids with the rubber gasket in lid for a air tight seal.


Mylar bags, either one big one for the entire continence or several smaller Mylar bags for a mix in one bucket for easier rotation.


Oxygen absorbers. Depending on cc size an average of 8 per bucket of the cheaper S100 kind per bucket or 3 or 4 500cc of the more expensive H100s


Sealer. This can be you food saver, clothing iron with a board, or my personal favorite a hair straighter iron if you don’t have one or don’t want to look for one you can add one to your order of mylar bags at FrontierSurvival.net.


Food. About 35lbs of wheat will fit in a 5 gallon bucket and 40lbs in a 6 gallon. How much of any given product depends on density of the food product.

GET SET... setting up to seal 

Setting up your buckets saves time and frustration



It is best to do as many of your buckets up at one time as possible. It is very helpful to have a friend or even two there to pour in food and seal with you. You don’t want to have to keep opening your oxygen absorbers. Since they do just as their name suggests, absorb oxygen, you can only expose them to the air for 15 minuets or so before they are completely exhausted and will not absorb any more.

  • So set up your buckets with the mylar bags opened and placed inside.

  • Have your food bags open and ready to pour.

  • Make sure your iron is hot, I have made that mistake before!

GO! Finishing up you SP bucket. 

Final steps in sealing you bags.



Open the oxygen absorbers, put one or two in the bottom of each bucket.

Close the remainder of the absorbers back up with either a Clipit! (this is what I use) you can put them in a food saver bag and seal, or a mason jar with a tight lid.


Pour in the food, have a helper shake the bag to help pull out any wrinkles while pouring.

Fill up to about 2 inches of the top.

Repeat with all buckets that you are doing at this time.

Put the last few absorbers on top of the food in the bucket.


Seal all but 2 inches of the top of the bag with the sealer.

or you use a clothes iron


Fold down the top of the bag pushing out any trapped air that you can.


Now seal the last couple of inches of the mylar bag.


Repeat for all buckets.

Put on your lid. It may take a little muscle to do. You can use a regular hammer with a towel so you don’t break the lid. But a rubber mallet is a life saver!
If you have a real tuff lid it can help to have a friend kneel on one side of the lid to hold it down while you hit the other side (hard) with the hammer or mallet. Work around the bucket until it appears snapped over the edge.


DONE!

Oops well almost, don’t forget to label on the top and side of bucket what is in there and the date.
