The invention relates to a grease filter for filtering grease and the use of the grease filter for a bearing in a wind turbine. A grease filter (1) is disclosed for filtering grease used for lubrication. The grease filter comprises and inlet (14) to allow the grease to enter the filter and an outlet (15) to allow the grease to leave the filter, whereby the grease flows from the inlet (14) towards the outlet (15) along a flow path (8). The filter comprises at least one magnetic element (4) present in the flow path (8) of the grease to attract magnetic particles present in the grease and deviate the particles out of the grease flow path (8).
