...2 food grade plastic buckets (free at the bakery)and a spigot from ebay works well...
Ours is a stainless steel “Travel” Berkey and is on our kitchen counter and used every day. The wife frowns on two big food grade plastic buckets stacked on each other on the counter of her kitchen. That’s her girl cave. No matter how well they work.
Understand. You have to pick your battles. ;-)
