Can i coal filter beer?!
Answers: I was wondering if i could filter my beer with a brita filter. I have tried to use coffee filters but its too slow and doesn't do much anyways. Have you tried coal filters? How did it work?
Why exactly are you filtering your beer? If you're worried about how fast it passes through a coffee filter, you're not doing it right and you're not showing the proper patience. If you let it sit in the secondary fermenter long enough, it will be crystal clear.
I've always found that if I get impatient and look for a faster alternative, it ruins the beer. Instead, I start another batch...it keeps my mind off of the batch I'm waiting for.
If you really need it clear and don't want to wait, use a clarifier like bentonite or isinglass.
Beer is perfect the way it is, why would you filter it? That's what distillers do to remove impurities from the distillation. Beer, being fermented, doesn't benefit from this treatment.
It's a lot easier to rack carefully. That way you leave enough yeast to carbonate your beer. Homebrew drinkers know enough to drink so as not to swallow the yeast -- except, of course for hefeweisen.
no
"Coal" is a closed cell structure carbonaceous material it will not filter anything, unless it's a powder , filtering through the compaction principal. Do you like black coal powder beer.You apparently have a lot to learn about brewing!
