ummm, the subject line says it all. mini jets are not what i'd call
cheap. $25 would be cheap. $50 is close to cheap. $150+ is not.

Tater, do you already have the pump? Housings and a decent vane pump
will get up to $150 pretty quick. If you are looking for small
quantiities of filtering like <10 gallons at a time the mini jet is
cheap to use if you can get one used. The pump is crap but works. I
have one and it was worth the $100 I paid. I bought it from Canada
back when the dollar was high there. The filters are a couple buck
per 10 gallons.

I currently have collected the parts for the water cartridge filter
setup, and passed my wine thru a 50 micron filter. everything worked
correctly, except that 50 micron was too big. i'll be picking up the
next smaller filter and see if that clears it up.

I was planning on posting some pics on the setup wghen i had it
running, but was also cooking out bratwursts at the same time and
wanted to deal with that. I think the total was all under $30. even if
it doesnt work, i can use the filter for water filtration.
