That looks small enough that it would get clogged up in a big hurry if you got any significant amount of stuff during the transfer.
Risk of failure should be no deterrent to trying.

Steve, I just took delivery of a very similar in-line 1 micron filter. I'm 36 hrs into primary fermentation so I'll let you know. I've read that removing bubbles (oxygen) held in the filter and sterile procedural discipline in purging lines are important. Steve533

I wish it had a smaller barb so I could use it to jump from my fermentation keg to my serving keg.
