Comment on Tried out a filter the other day...

This is my setup, it’s basically an in line/whole house water filter that accepts 10 inch filters. I connected two posts that go onto the liquid line of a Cornelius keg. I then use co2 to basically transfer it between the kegs and through the filter. Over all I think I paid like $40 USD for this set up, and the replacement filters are $5 or so.

Thanks! That’s what I was looking at - probably need to shop around to get the price closer to what you paid 😸 Getting inspired here…
Any idea if these kind of filters would manage with the flow at around 80 °C (180 °F)? I’m thinking of running the filtration in a loop on the Kegmenter (a steel keg with a 2-post pressurising lid) for the duration of cooling the wort, which happens by immersing the whole keg in running water in my setup. Doing it like that wouldn’t waste CO2 because the liquid volume would be constant, and the hour it takes to cool the wort would probably allow plenty of time to do a thorough filtration.
