I just fried shrimp and catfish for supper and would like to save and reuse the oil. How do you guys filter you fry oil?
Decide what you want in life then make it a reality.

Most places that sell fish fryers also sell large plastic funnels and cone shaped filters. Charlie

large coffee filter ,the kind for 100 cups I bought 6 of the commercial size filter holders off EBay years ago very handy for filtering items.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

metal sieve with a fine mesh sold at nearly any grocery store or big box store
most of our frying happens on the grill with a 7 quart dutch oven.so if it is just going to be the next day I just run the sieve around and put the lid on the dutch oven tight.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I just pour it back in a one gallon container. Everything settles out itself, then pour it back and leave the settlings in the bottom. No filter needed

If you look in the kitchen tool section at lot stores. They sell little fine wire stainless steel strainer meant to go in sink drains. They fit nice in bottom of most any size funnel. Can screen out the big chunks from your oil pretty quick with them. If you want it cleaner then go threw coffee type filter after. When I'm doing lots fish fries in spring. I usually just pour the oil threw one of the screens back in jug or into another fry pan. I remember my mother just running a screen sieve around in bottom her old electric fryer. putting a lid on and just setting it aside on counter. Might be days before she used it again. Don't know if that was better oil in old days? but I don't recall ever being no rancid tasted. If she thought it was bad she'd dump it start over.
