I've used the same system a many times but recently when trying to filter using my vacuum and .22 millipore filter it doesn't drip slowly it just collapses and all the product just falls through into the glass bottle. Is the pressure to high? I've just never had this happen before and would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks.

Are you putting the gear into filter while the gear is hot? And what compound are you brewing? Does it have BB in it?

No it's not hot and it's tren e so yes.
Im going to purchase a cheap vacuum pump to see if my pump is the issue. Maybe too much pressure? It's just always worked before
Would the amount of Bb concentration be a possible cause of this?
Yes how many cfm does your pump max at?Originally Posted by Leoterelli250

What kind of membrane are the millpore? Ive have bb melt the membrane. I believe it was nylon.

That or pes. But the milipore is a pvdf. Which is fine for bb. No issues probly too much psi or vaccum.

My question was for op. Vacuum pumps only create vacuum, not psi. Two totally different things. And I use a 6.5cfm electric vacuum pump and never had an issue.

Me too. Never had a milipore blow out. Only one time because solution was hot. Have to let it cool
