Hey I have recently seen pics comparing extracts (slabs) with one being normal and the other being filtered which was much lighter in color. Can anyone please explain what exactly is this filter media. Thank you

Thanks for the link! Great diy info on how to make DE filter cake and carbon scrubber. nice one troutman
My question is sans vacuum pump, would a venturi have enough oomph to do the job? ( i've seen bicycle pumps reversed to create a vac also)
if not practical, perhaps a link to a inexpensive vacuum pump?

They do have hand vacuum pumps if you're willing to pump away manually on a small scale
until you get a mechanical vacuum pump. To find what I'm talking about just Google:
