    "Tips and tricks to using a whole house filter"

    I also used white teflon tape and didn't know about pink. I will give that a try. I do have a question about the indexing and tightening. Forgive my ignorance, but if you only need to hand tighten the housing without the filter in it, then index it, what's the point of bench mounting and...

    "Tips and tricks to using a whole house filter"

    I would agree, except it was only hand tightened (right on the index marks) when I first tried and it leaked right away. I then tightened it more (a little past the index) with the wrench, still leaked. Bench mounted the bracket and really tightened it (quite a bit past the index), still leaked...

    "Tips and tricks to using a whole house filter"

    Just A Guy, your video is an exact duplication of my experience with the whole house filter this weekend. This is the 2nd time I have bought the setup and both have been very disappointing. I tried a couple of years ago, with the filter housing that has the relief button in it. Never could...

    "Tips and tricks to using a whole house filter"

    Thank you Steve. I understand what you mean about less vacuum for bottling, but the 3/8 confused me. Do you mean 3/8 OD? I just found a small piece of my original hose (not enough to use) and it measures 5/16 ID. Sorry for all the questions.

    Yeast Comparison -using 71B-1122 vs BM45 on Amarone

    BM4x4 is actually what I was leaning towards using. I used it on a CC Showcase Rosso Fortisimo kit about 3 years ago and that has just become an outstanding wine. I've managed somehow to keep back 18 bottles of it so far, hoping to get to 5 years with several left. Anyway, I was very pleased...

    Yeast Comparison -using 71B-1122 vs BM45 on Amarone

    Any updates on the differences? I'm about to start an EP Amarone and I'm curious about your results.
