Can you explain how to connect your keg system with your plate filter and counter pressure bottle filler? I like the idea of clearer bottled beer, but does the plate filter remove all of the yeast and prevent bottle conditioning?

The counter pressure bottle filler allows you to fill bottles with per-carbonated beer. It works like this: - You first carbonate the beer in the keg (important, do not over carbonate or you will have problems with foam.) - Then you set up the filler with equal pressure to the filler and the keg (usually through a gas "T" line.) - Insert the filler into the bottle and turn the lever towards the gas side, this will pressurize the bottle to the same pressure in the keg. - There is an adjustable pressure relief valve on the side of the filler, open it slightly to allow air to come out of the bottle (this purges out the air and replaces with CO2). - On the first bottle, close the relief valve again and turn the lever from the gas input to the beer input. - Since they are at the same pressure, nothing or very little beer should fill, now unscrew the adjustable relief valve until beer is filling the bottle. - I will usually let it so far out to where it starts to foam, then I thread it back in till the foam is just a little layer on the top of the filling beer (ideal fill rate.) - Fill to the top of the neck of the bottle, turn the valve to the off position, remove the filler and cap the bottle -Now that we've set the flow rate, with the next bottles we just insert the filler, turn to the gas position, let purge for a few seconds, switch to the beer fill, and repeat past steps. Usually, you only need to do slight tweaks to the adjustable filler. You can filter between kegs using our plate filter which will remove most all yeast and most haze causing compounds (but not all.) You do not need any yeast present because you will be counter pressure filling and will not be bottle conditioning (allowing natural carbonation in the bottle through the use of yeast and added sugar.)
