You can't filter a powder. You filter once the compound is dissolved in the carrier oil. Depending on the amount you need to filter, you can do it by hand using a large volume Luer-lock syringe and syringe filters. This will only remove objects that are over the size of the pore in the filter -- think microbes and small particles leftover from manufacturing or dust from the air. It won't remove chemical impurities. You want to get a filter that's not much bigger that 0.25 um (microns), and one that is 0.1 will be more effective in removing particulates that are smaller than microbes.

Some things to know: it will take a decently long time, and your hand will probably get tired so you'll want to take breaks. If you try to force it too fast, you'll rupture the filter. Starting with warm to hot oil will be the smartest move, because this will decrease the viscosity. You may also need to switch out the filter; if you fill a 50 mL syringe, and there's a decent amount of stuff in the solution, the filter pores will get clogged, so you just twist off the spent filter and put on a new one.

If you need to filter larger volumes, this isn't the best approach.

Hey dude, I'm reading your other posts. You may not be someone who should be preparing this stuff. A lot can go wrong.

This is not my first time brewing it's just what I brewed last time came out to be fake and I did not have a good filtering process last time so i just want to improve that this time with the real raw powders I order now
