Pes syringe filter for small brews

[zyzzlegacy]

Dear homebrewers,
Finally I got my whole set up and just waiting for PPL‘s order to arrive.
in my country I can only get PVDF filters in large amounts/above 100€ so I bought it from AliExpress. He mistakenly sent me pes filters (0,22 um) and I got a refund, but would have to wait 4 weeks or more if I buy new ones.

so can I use PES filters for small brews (10-20 ml?)
Only easy brews: Test C, Primo, Tren

No. Don't risk it unless you want to inject filter membrane into your body.

PTFE, PVDF or nylon are your safest choices.

PES will disolve in no time.

Ok is ptfe superior to pvdf in regards to brewing ?

Not necessarily. They're all compatible with organic solvents(benzyl benzoate) and benzyl benzoate. PES isn't and will ruin your brew and your day.

I used PTFE because it's what I had available in my country

There is a chart someone posted on here that says pes is a no go for solvents like bb
