The Biggest MISTAKE Backpackers make with the Katadyn Befree

Katadyn Befree Water Filter: https://amzn.to/3epE2CX

Hi guys!
I've heard this so many times that when backpackers get in the field with the befree it doesn't flow at all. I have found this to be the most common issue and just wanted to explain how to prevent it.

SIDE NOTE: Improper use and maintenance will clog any filter so this might not always be the issue for you.
