Hello Matt Why bother? Not worth the trouble.
If you make your biodiesel properly, everything that a filter might remove will be in the by-product layer, not the biodiesel. So settle it properly, separate it carefully, and use it. No need to filter it. No need to filter the oil first either, as these two previous posts show: http://snipurl.com/1j20b Re: [Biofuel] Filtering - was Re: Vegtable oil sources... http://snipurl.com/1j20c Re: [Biofuel] Filtering - was Re: Vegtable oil sources...
