A question about brita water filters?
Today I bought one and used it for the first time. When I put water into it, the water came out very grey and blackish – like charcoal or something. Is that normal??

Yes, the filter has charcoal in it and the first few batches have charcoal dust in them.
Re-read the directions, you are supposed to soak the filter first for 15 minutes and rinse it – that will reduce the dust and toss out the first pitcher or two.
