WVO filter
Does anyone here produce WVO fuel and if so, what filter(s) do you use / can you recommend?

5 micron sock filter such as this one

Used this type in either 10L or 20L variants for a long time with good results in my 1.9td. I change the fuel filter in my car about once every 1 and a half months.

How much are you looking to filter in each batch Mike??
Best bet is to head over to www.vegetableoildiesel.co.uk and look at some of the setups other users are putting together

Yep, Vegoildiesel is the place to be
I stick it all in a 205L drum and let it settle for a few days, pre filter the good stuff through an Asda smart price pillow case, heat and settle, then finally through a 5 micron sock filter. I try and do large batches at a time so that it's time efficient.
If you don't have space or time you can still save a bit of cash by buying prefiltered WVO, I think the going rate is 30-40ppl.
