Wine Filter

Einföld og góð lausn til að tæra vín. Athugið að filterplötur fylgja ekki með. The first Vinbrite wine filter was originated way back in 1966. Over the years, this filter kit has constantly been updated to keep at the forefront of home wine filtration. As Harris Filters have for some time been researching new filter media, the Vinbrite filter kit has now been slightly modified to include certain changes that will considerably increase its performance. The Vinbrite instruction express that wine makers make sure that fermentation is completed before filtering. Whenever gas bubbles are seen rising in the transfer tube, this indicates that the wine is still working. In such cases, filtering should be stopped and the wine ferment out completely. However, wine makers are often impatient and will frequently try to filter unstable wines. When filtering and handling wine in general, minute gas bubbles may be released as the wine is disturbed resulting in a back pressure buildup in the filter body, which can also affect performance. The revised filter kit has now been designed to enable the winemaker to release any trapped air whilst filtering via the vent tube and tap. The updating of this unique filter kit will keep the Vinbrite to the forefront of home wine filtration and will enable wine makers to filter wine more quickly to professional standards. The new hi-tech Crystalbrite pads are slightly thicker than the previous ones. They are extremely efficient when compared to any other filtering media. This means that, all wines, whether country or kit wines can be filtered to crystal-clear perfection, easier, quicker and more efficiently than ever before. The VINBRITE MK3 kit includes a filter body, support disc, locking ring, funnel, spanner, transfer tube, flow control clip, 6 Crystalbrite filter pads, Super Enzyme and Vin Clear sachets together with full instructions. All parts are easy to clean and sanitize. Filtering is as simple as this .... 1. The Crystalbrite pad is inserted inside the filter body. The Crystalbrite pads can be fitted either way in the filter body. 2. The support disc is placed on top of the pad with the side marked 'A' facing the filter pad and with the three lugs located into the slots of the filter body. 3. Next screw the locking ring into the filter body to secure the pad being careful not to cross the thread. Tighten the locking ring with the spanner provided (see photograph). 4. Attach the funnel to the filter body. 5. It is first necessary to rinse the pad with tap water which swells the pad material and also removes any loose fibers. The filter is then ready for filtering the wine. Always use Crystalbrite brand pads for best performance.
