I use a 10" membrane cartridge rated at 0.45µ absolute, in an Amatek
housing. The cartridges are a little expensive (~$100).

The wine needs to be clear to start with or it'll plug up the filter in no
time. That said, a cartridge will last for many batches of wine if you
maintain it carefully and don't load it with cloudy wine. I recommend
storing in vodka between uses to prevent things from growing in it.
