since this went to tech talk tonight, what do you do to filter your beer before botteling/keging?
I tried filtering for a while, got some in-line filters, and pushed the beer from one keg to another, worked OK.
it wont change the flavor of the beer, usually they are used to stabilize the beer by removing the yeast, and thus stopping all fermintation, but really unless the beer is going to be sitting around for a long time, it doesn't make much sense to filter it, and if you are bottling you need a little yeast left so your beer will carbonate. so don't waste your time just transfer it to a glass carboy and let it sit a couple of weeks and let gravity do the job.
