Homebrew set up and discussion

[keith1569]

Millipore stericup filter + receiver combo
Hand pump
45mm septa top
45mm silicons septa

that would be so ideal but i cant find presterile tops!

 

[brundel]

Autoclave
or
pressure cooker

 

[brundel]

You could probably dry heat sterilize them as well....
Im not sure about the silicon

If i ran my homebrew thru a .45 filter twice instead of a .22 once , would that make a difference?

No, the smaller particles will still pass through. The .22 has a smaller pore size.

Use .22 or .2 filters. .45 should be avoided

PVDF or PTFE have the best material compatibility. All other filter types are not compatible with BA or BB or a combo of the two.

Do not use glass filters to filter gear or oil - they typically use binders to keep the glass threads together, you dont want that crap in your gear.

I like to prefilter my oils with the smallest pore size I can find as I find it speeds up the final filtration steps.
