So instead of coffee filters, get a bucket, add some charcoal, sand, charcoal, sand - several layers and punch a hole in the bottom to allow the water to flow and use that. Again, coffee filters only remove large particulates. Is that better than nothing? Barely... IMHO The homemade filter I just described is actually pretty decent - you can add a layer of coffee filters- that would be helpful, and some silver coins at the bottom layer - silver does act as a anti microbial at least... and my comment was from 5 years ago! Time flies. I now live in my own home in NW San Antonio. Unfortunately, there is no natural water source near by so I bought a dehumidifier which will produce 6 gallons a day. And yes, I have a solar gen to power it.<>
Any filter is a lot better than no filter.
