Anyone ever try one of these for filtering their cider? It has a 5 micron and 1 micron filter, all done in one pass. If you already do kegging, it looks like a simpler, less expensive option compared to a Buon Vino Mini Jet Filter.

I doubt it will work with low pressure so how are you gonna force it through?

Hit Keg A with about 5 PSI, have beer / cider / wine flow out of Keg A into filter #1, then into filter #2, then into Keg B thru the liquid side. When transfer is complete, hit Keg B with the CO2 and carb up..

That's my understanding of how it is supposed to work.

Also found a link to where someone here built a 2 stage filtration system.

That's what I was thinking. I wonder how much the unfiltered liquid would gum up the ball locks and siphon tube. Never had a cider that wasn't clear after aging.
