Custom WB is the another way to try.

May I also know what lens did you use? I found that the colour is different under same lighting using different lenses.

You might want to stay away from saturation. When I shoot RAW, I prefer keeping everything flat then adjust as necessary. It gives you are greater latitude to do so. Also as others have stated, AWB sometimes is better.

If you use different filters, they may affect, or the lenses you're talking about are from different manufacturers. Nikon has superb colour consistency between their lenses.
