I'm going to be adding a jacketed 7bbl fermenter and brite to our arsenal. I'm planning on just using the 7bbl fermenter for lagers. For the sake of time, I'm thinking of fermenting and crashing in the fermenter. Then filtering into and carbing in the brite. Keg off and let kegs sit in the cold room for a few weeks.
I've never used a filter before and am leaning towards a lenticular filter but don't know if a P&F would be better. I realize that using a lenticular as a primary might be asking a lot but we're only talking 7bbls, right? I'll probably only be filtering once every 2-3 weeks.
My biggest question is if I'll be able to filter 7bbls in one pass without backflushing in a lenticular. I just want to get most of the yeast out....Don't need to get it all.
What size/type filter would work best for a small 7bbl brewpub?
