What micron filter do you use for filtering your dry white wine ? I have a one micron filter I was going to use.

I used voice to text so that is why the title is goofey. I don’t know how to change it, tried to edit the post but no luck.

None. Six months of bulk aging, degassing, and clarification is enough.

If I decide to filter, I use a .2 micron nominal grade, it is not an absolute membrane, but still very good. I've had no issues with ML or sugar fermentation in the bottle.

The finest pads I have are .5 nominal and considered sterile. I understand you can't get absolute without using cylindrical filters. I filter all my whites especially the ones with residual sugar.

I find it can depend on fermentation & aging conditions and which yeast you used as to whether there is risk of re-fermentation if there is still some residual sugar. I filter my whites with 0.45um filters and still have had one batch of "dry" wine re-ferment lightly once the temperature warmed up a bit. I like the D47 yeast but it seems to always leave a little residual sugar.

So, I now add sorbate to my dry white wines to hedge against this, pad filter down to 0.45um, and sterile membrane filter on the way to the bottler. Have not had any trouble since going route.

0.5 pad and my Mini Jet for all of my whites.

I have the allinone wine pump with the filter set up. I have not used it yet. I bought the 1 micron filter does anyone know if this would fit?

It’s a .5 micron
