How we checked
Grayl's own GeoPress product page confirms a press-style purifier using electroadsorption and ultra-powdered activated carbon (no micron pore-size rating is published, since this is not a hollow-fiber pore-based filter), purifying 24 oz in about 8 seconds (~5.3 L/min effective), a 350-cycle / 65 gal (250 L) rated cartridge lifetime (roughly 3 years of typical use, replace when press time reaches ~25 seconds), 15.9 oz (450 g) weight, and removal of viruses (Rotavirus, Hepatitis A, Norovirus), bacteria (E. coli, Cholera, Salmonella), and protozoa (Giardia, Cryptosporidium). The press cartridge is not field-cleanable and must be replaced as a sealed unit, which is sold separately.
