Water filter pot

Question
Hello dear expert team,
I would be interested if these water filter pots or water filter decanters are o.k. from the hygienic standpoint?
I use the water from the tank for my coffee machine and for the water boiler. I am interested if I could use the water from the filter also for the vaporiser?
Or could too many germs have colonized the filter?
Many thanks for your answer in advance,
Best regards,
Answer
Hello,
it has been described by a leading German consumer safety group that it can come to accumulation of germs in water filters. The germ load depends on the standing time of the water in the filter. Therefore it is advisable to use boiled water or drinking water for the vaporiser.
