Filtering is an advanced technique and should only be attempted on a homebrew scale by the certifiably insane. A brew buddy of mine filters EVERYTHING. He is certifiably insane. It took him over a year to really get a handle on the process and he ruined a lot of beer along the way. After watching what he goes through to successfully filter, there is no way I'm making it work in my brewery. I must say however, his beer is brilliantly clear - I mean brilliant on a commercial scale. Plus, when the keg is empty, there is no sediment on the bottom. Makes for an easy keg clean up. But I still think the effort isn't worth it. If you are bottling, filtering just doesn't make much sense at all because you filter all the yeast out and then have to add it back in for bottle conditioning.
For reference, stick with the flat plate filters made especially for beer and wine and use kegs and CO2 to push the beer around. Be prepared to sacrifice some beer in the persuit of brilliant clarity.
