Thanks redder,


I'm pretty handy with tools and have a 1 inch bench top belt sander that would make short work on the wings. I'll see what tubing I can find. Another great reason to read these posts!
 
I think Santa might have to bring me a gravity filter. I'm also mentally working on a peristaltic pump design. If I can fins a cheap variable speed motor I can probably build the rest.

How well do the gravity filters flow? How long does it take to polish filter a 6 gallon carboy?
 
The few batches I have done with the gravity filter were fairly quick. They take about 15-30 minutes for a 6 gallon batch and do come out very clear. I only use it though as a last resort, since they usually clear fine without it and it's just another step to go through.

The last I did was a Penot Grigio and my log said 24 min...
 
Wow, I"m impressed. You even logged how long it took to filter, nice! All I do anymore is write down the recipe.
 
I think all of you on here has made me a little anal....Maybe...

Try being named Murphy. The laws are correct. And I am a paramedic so I know what you mean about keeping detailed records.
