Filters

[Patrickadam31]

Looking at filter systems to start off how much oil can you put thru a syringe filter or should I just get a bottle top filter?

I've usually been able to get 30 to 40 ml's through one filter. B some have said you can get more, but that's what I've been able to do

I've done 2 brews, each 100ml each. It was a pain in the ass tbh. If you are planning on doing more brews after this one, getting the bottle top would save time and energy

Sent from my SM-G950W using TapatalkPretty sure it can if you invest in a quality bottle top filter. Think it's just getting the filter papers after that

Someone recommended Autofil vacuum filters to me. Pricey, but I I'm sure it's worth it

Do I buy .2 or .45 filters?

.2

Ive always heard .22 or .2 for filtering.

I have heard that some labs or personal home brewers will do 2 filtrations.

First filtration with .45 and second with .22

I've tried different systems and the best one hands down Whatman Zapcap disposable filter .2 and a glass media bottle.. Then for vacuum pump go to the auto parts and get it and you wont use whatman syringe filters ever in your life [emoji817][emoji817]

Yeah disposable is the way to go.... It's a little expensive 13$ a piece but you can filter up to 500ml no problem very fast no leaking very but very reliable u will love it

I was using pre sterilized bottle tops but now decided to go with glassware one. More healthly, cheaper(if you do big batches). I use syringe filters for test batches. Avarage syringe filter will stuck after 30ml.

Not trying to hijack thread but....do the glass media bottles have a "standard" size that the zapcaps fit on do I need to look foe a specific size?

Mostly proper for GL45 but I have seen different ones too It was 33mm diameter merck millipore pre sterilized bottle tops. If it isnt mentioned %99 proper for GL45

Are there any plastic bottles that can withstand the vacuum/pressure that's needed to filter oil without cracking?

Not trying to be a smart ass, but why take a risk with plastic?
