Hi guys, maybe anybody could give me a hint?
We need two types of filters:
1. Filtering our keg beer: Our keg beer will be consumed very rapidly, that means microbiological STABILITY is not the point. But we use some yeasts strains which do NOT sediment well (for example wheat beer). So this beers are YEAST hazy and YEAST cloudy. SM 3.0 (Micron 3-4) would be sufficient to filter THE YEAST out of this beers?
2. Filtering our bottle beer: Our bottle beer would need more filtration power. Microbiological stability would be nice, but it depends on the "price". We would not like to lose too much flavor or bitterness. Do you think a double filtration Micron 3-4 > Micron 1 would be a good solution? We work very clean and up until now, thanks God, havent had any problems with contaminations.
My doubts are a) will 3-4 micron sufficient to filter out all the yeasts out of the keg beer? And b) 1 micron would be good for bottled beer, or should we use 0,45 micron?
Or maybe you could propose me anything better?
Thanks a lot for any help :-)
