Default HELP: Pitcher-style water filtration?

Not seeking a brand, just a few questions.

When it's done filtering, do you pull off the top filtration apparatus and
refrigerate the pitcher?

What maintenance/care is required when not in use? Bacteria prevention
treatment?

Is filtering a few pitchers at a time into a separate pitcher a better
practice?

How long a process is realistically? I don't want to babysit the water
filter all day long.

What's an average pitcher capacity? I've seen "up to" 1/3 gallon by Brita.

I imagine the filters do the job as advertised. Is it actually more cost
effective than gallon jug cost?

I'm tired of paying $1.79 a gallon at the supermarket is why I ask.That and
it's a "green" step in the right direction.

Any thoughts?

If you own the house, put a filter in the kitchen cold water line. You may
also want to consider one of the ones that attaches to the spout.

Do you have a reason to believe that you need to filter your water?
