Howdy all,
Ready for this?
I'm filtering a kolsch 10bbl through a 40x40 plate and frame (24 plates) using Seitz K700 pads. The SV beer is clouded. Upon doing cell counts from the FV and the SV, I found almost identical values. Somehow the yeast is bypassing the pads, a.k.a. "leaking". I have several hundred successful filters using this exact setup producing beer I can read a newspaper through.
Anyone else have experience with a "leaking filter"?
Dave
