I am building a filtering tank so that I can line up 3 filtering cones in a line but I need to know how long a cone is so that I build the tank deep enough so that the cones don't hang in the filtered syrup, I will have a ball valve on one end on the bottom to drain the filtered syrup. If someone can get me these dimensions I would appreciate it because I do not have the filters yet.
I have an orlon cone filter and it measures 17.5" (flat) from the top of the straps to the bottom of filter.
hmmm that could be tricky to line up 3 will take time and space especially you will need prefilters and you need to be able to see them so you can pull them when they are full. this year I am swiching to flat filters they are cheaper...just buy the bigger ones and cut them they will be easier to clean ...no seams, and more surface area for the syrup to go through easier to remove prefilters as they get cloged up. and using a pan witha valve can dipense right into a 5 gallon blue...hopefully less mess for me!!!! easier to grade right then and there. just seems easier all around.
