Vinbrite Mk3 Filter Kit
£18.50
This was the first wine filter we ever bought, and we have seen it regularly updated over the years. This latest model of the Vinbrite Mk3 kit includes a filter body with an air release vent, support disc, locking ring, funnel, spanner, transfer tube, flow control clip, 6 Crystalbrite pads, Super Enzyme and Vin Clear sachets and full instructions. The wine is simply racked from one container to another, passing down the syphon tube and then through the filter housing which contains the filtering pad.
The only pressure to push the wine through is gravity, so this is not a quick filter, but if you are not in a hurry, and are using it on small volumes, you will find that it does work effectively.
