The Super Jet pump can be used alone as a transfer pump. Note in the close up photo on the right that there is a pressure gauge which tells you when the filter pads are starting to clog. This takes the guesswork out of when to change pads if you are filtering very large batches of wine, or beer. About the pads: The Coarse pads filter larger particles of 6 microns or above. The Polish pad then removes particles down to 1 micron. For crystal clear wine, you can then use the Sterile pad which filters down to .5 microns. They must be used in succession. You can't start with the sterile filter, as it will clog too quickly.

Perfect Brewing Review:
I purchased one of these units myself to use on beer. While mainly designed as a wine filter, they work well for beer also. It uses 3 stage disposable filters. There are three grades of filters, but for beer I only use the first 2. The last is a .5 micron, and I didn't think is was necessary for beer.

I found that the unit worked very well, but it is very important that you let as much yeast settle out as possible. The first (coarse) filter catches most of the sediment, and can clog very quickly. I got a little anxious and filtered my first batch too soon. Not a major problem, but you have to change the pads half way through. My second batch, I used finings, racked to a secondary fermenter, and had no problems using a single pad.

Keep in mind that you are filtering out the yeast, so this unit can't be used for beer unless you are kegging, and carbonating with CO2. This unit is quite heavy duty for the money, and produces great looking beer and wine. If you are intending to filter, this is a very cost effective way to go. Be sure to purchase the filter pads, which are sold separately.
