If you try pushing carbonated beer through a .5 micron filter you will end up with a sh**load of foam and SFA beer to drink.
Forget it'.

To get around the problem of foaming, you simply replace the filter cannister with a length of pipe that stops about half an inch short of the bottom of the filter unit. That means the beer has to pass through the hop filled cannister before exiting....ie, you turn it into an Organoleptic Hop Transducer....aka, Randall. Doc over on the aussiehomebrewer forum built a double hopback this way!!

Alternatively, you could build your own ghetto hopback with a jar;
