Hey guys I know I haven't been posting much on here but I've been struggling and need help from some vets that have brewed before .. I am brewing on a semi large scale .. and can't find the perfect bottle top filter.. I've used nalgene .22 and that took a day or longer to filter 300 to 500 ml .. but the gear came out very smoothe and obviously filtered very well lol.. so someone suggested I try .45 bottle top filters and I purchased some auto fill brand filters and they won't hold a vacuum seal plus seems like the oil would just run through the filter leading me to believe it wasn't thurough enough .. plus had some pip with the batch using .45 .. never and pip using .22 filters .. syringe filters would be ok accept I'm making a larger amount and that would take forever .. can any one please either give me some insight or lead me in the direction of where I might get some good info on the most effecient and sterile way to filter using a home set up .. I've googled the shot out of this and can't seem to come up with exactly what I am looking for .. thanks very much for any and all help ..

This is scary. You should have had this figured out prior to selling to the public....I also assume u have zero chemistry background, otherwise u could have answered your question yourself....People that brew keep their contacts for filters and other items to themselves, not certain your going to get what your looking for....

Trade secrets usually stay that way, Your kind of playing with peoples health, doing things they way you are.

Well i can tell you this. Both nalgene and auto fill are garbage.

And .45 isnt small enough micron sterilization for human injection.

A bit more researching is needed here i think

Also how do you create vaccum? Manually or electric pump.
