Filtering your wine with a minijet..
Filtering your wine is the last stage before bottling.
So, your wine should be finished, stabilised, and bulk aged for as long as you want to. I then rack it again so there isn’t any sediment at all in the jar.
The minijet is good, as you can rack with it as well as filter. It doesn’t like bits in your wine though like grape seeds etc. It can rack upwards too, so no need to go lifting heavy carboys up!
First of all, clean the area your using. I’m using the kitchen, as the wife is in bed and can’t argue!
I’ve set the minijet up in the middle of the 2 carboys I’m using, no need to though as the hoses it comes with are quite long.
