I have a suggestion for a filter. After reading about using/not using a coffee filter, I remembered the large conical type of filters that restaurants use to filter their fryer oil with. If I remember correctly, they where about 8-10 inches tall, and about 10-12 inches in diameter. They would fit into a filter holder that would sit on top of whatever container you had handy. (NOT a plastic 5 gal. bucket, if the oil is still hot - thats another story)

Anyway, they seemed to filter out some pretty fine particles, and weren't all that expensive. If you know anybody in the restaurant biz, ask them if they filter their oil, and if they do, if they use a cone filter (vs. a machine).

Hope this helps,

-Larry
