Black Berkey Primer – There are two ways to prime the Black Berkey or BOROUX Foundation™ Black filter cartridges. Priming must be carried out before you Black Berkey filters or BOROUX Foundation™ Black elements in the water filter. Priming involves forcing a small amount of water through the cartridge under slight pressure to ensure that the inside of the Black Berkey filter cartridge gets wet (air is expelled from the cartridge). This allows you to benefit from a high flow rate from each cartridge.
To prime the surface, you can use a Priming Button (a small rubber ring) or the PrimeRite (a blue rubber nozzle). These tools allow you to flush the filter element using a tap. They are supplied as standard with the Black Berkey filters and BOROUX Foundation™ Black elements Supplied in the box. If you’ve lost them, you can order them separately from us. If priming with the tap doesn’t work, or if the tap isn’t suitable, you can use the Black Berkey Primer available here or the BOROUX Automatic Filter Primer Pump.
The Black Berkey Primer is a hand-operated primer pump that makes it easy to prime Black Berkey or BOROUX Foundation™ Black elements without the need for a tap or other water supply. Priming saturates the elements with water before use, ensuring that water is properly purified throughout the entire element and that it flows at a sufficient rate. To use the primer, immerse the filter element in water and attach the primer to the element’s handle. Squeezing the bulb draws the water towards the centre of the filter cartridge. Once the cartridge is saturated, the water flows through the primer and emerges at the other end. The Black Berkey or BOROUX Foundation™ Black cartridge is now ready for use.
The Black Berkey Primer can also clean (or back-flush) the cartridges using air instead of water. This cleans the perforated pores in the carbon filter wall. Cleaning the cartridges achieves two things: (1) It removes the dirt from the pores that has accumulated there during use, and (2) it reduces the time needed for the filters to dry before they are stored.

Unfortunately, I shouldn’t have ordered this one, as you don’t really need it and it’s unclear how to use it – you have to go online first.

It does what it’s supposed to do. Looking forward to an electric version in the future!

Don't need to use it yet
Henk Jan Veltink –
It’s difficult to screw the filter on. It feels as though the thread doesn’t fit properly. Fitting the filter was also very hard work – tightening the nuts, at least.
Al Schoenmakers –
Leave it wrapped until I need it.
