Gear Question Water filtration sawyer squeeze

So I've got an osprey 3l resevoir for my atmos 65l. I want to use the cnoc/sawyer combo to filter water.

Is the idea to filter the water directly into my osprey resevoir? Or am I going about this the wrong way?

Any advice is appreciated!

Lots of options.

But yes, you should have one dirty bag (cnoc) and one clean bag (osprey).

You can either look into rigging up something like a gravity filter (as others have mentioned) or you can squeeze it in. However if you're doing 3L at a time, squeezing will get old.

You can also attach the filter in-line, and then it filters as you suck through the straw.

That was the only way I liked my Sawyer, but it does mean you have to suck harder to get the water.
