Okay Tom, what is the "DE" you referred to when responding to Raanan's
question about filter connections.

I imagine that you are talking about connecting a throw away filter of some
kind to the suction end of the Flojet and immersing the filter into the wine
to be filtered.

I have heard good filters are expensive and cheap ones are messy. I use a
Flojet to transfer wine (200 litre - from-grapes) when racking.

An alternative to an expensive filter that may not be used very often sounds
interesting. I'm a boater and generally handy at building things. Would
you expand on construction of a suitable filter. Please...

Thanks, Roger

PS
The Flojet I have has quick-connect in/out connections. The pump comes with
various size hose-barb and garden hose connectors. Very handy as the
connector will turn in the seat, eliminating kinking of the hose and it does
not leak. Good pump.
