It will quickly clog and after messing with it for 30 minutes, you will get sick of the idea. I haven't come up with a cheap way to filter wine that actually works. The best thing I know to do is to be careful not to disturb the sediment by siphoning the wine out of the bottle instead of pouring it out.
The only way to completely clarify a beverage that I know if is by racking it. Siphon off as much as you can, leaving the sediment behind, and clarifying the siphoned wine, and then repeat until desired clearness. The improvement in subsequent transfers is in apperance, not taste, but that is a personal opinion.

I tried this beer using dried malt extract, Nugget hops, and Cooper's yeast. It was quite drinkable at approximately 4% alcohol content.
The next batch I am going to use 1 and 1/4 cups of DME and 1 and 1/4 cups of corn sugar to get the alcohol content up a bit.
The EZ Caps work great and it is a lot of fun to make different recipes at low cost.

Hey folks, I just wanted to share my filtration method. I just take a flexible tube and siphon out the mixture into a 4L jug such that the sediment stays and I get the good stuff.
It works for me.
