  Does someone have an idea of what size in microns the largest
  micro-organisms that we are trying to extract are?

  Just curious because I would like to get a nice high quality food
  grade piece of of silk screen to hold the compost in my brewer as I
  have used these as filter media in other projects with much success.
  They are rated by the mesh opening size in microns and come in a wide
  variety of mesh sizes.

  Shalom
