Looking at a few nice in line filters online and am torn on one little aspect. Should I got with 1 micron tolerance or .5? There is a noticeable price difference and I don't know it that really coresponds with a noticeable increase in clarity. Anyone out there that filters have any input?

The 5.0 micron filter gets rid of any sediment in your beer. The 1.0 micron filter gives you a brilliantly clear beer. And the 0.5 micron filter enables you to eliminate almost all chill haze from your brilliantly clear beer

If you have keg equipment, you can use an in-line cartridge filter like they use to filter water in homes, and transfer from one keg to another with the filter in between

  I picked up a house type water filter from Home Brew Stuff  that had ball lock connectors and hose.  Also bought a case of the 10" x 2" filters on Ebay from seller "allforwater".  Filters were $ 1.35 each by the case including shipping.  These were 5 micron.  Also available 1 & .5 micron at same price.
