Howdy all,
got a new 40x40 plate and frame with a diversion plate. Loaded the first 2/3 of plates with k700 Seitz then the last 1/3 of plates with k300. I was advised by the filter company's rep to "reverse" the position of the pad immediately after the diversion plate but all other pads in the appropriate orientation (ie, rough side against product inlet, smooth side against product outlet). I can't wrap my brain around why this makes a difference. HELP.
Also, I was advised to run the inlet pressure at 45psi via my pump. As I was waiting for the filter sight glasses to explode, I wondered if this pressure was appropriate for this set up: 10 bbl, good floc yeast, several days cold.
Any DETAILED plate and frame methodology/procedures will be looked upon as mantra from GOD!
Thanks Probrewers,
Dave
