As few steps as possible is great. I used to heat and settle, and had a top heated upflow setup that sorta worked.

The cold upflow system is documented well on frybrid, and is said to scale up well. You put WVO in, clean dry wvo comes out the other end, and it's simple as a rock.

I use quik n dri resin in a packed column. I used PVC, 5 gal bucket and bulkhead fittings. WVO goes through a sock filter into a 5 gal bucket and trickles through a packed column of coorga qnd. A PVC ball valve at the end keeps it slow so the VO has enough time to interact w/ the resin and be dried. This drips into a sock filter and barrel. I still have to clean out my old barrel pump.
