I hate the stuff, wet oil and fats don't go through the strainer on my footer valve

Really need to modify my oil pre-processing to be able to take solids and whites. I'm a bit lucky in that the vast majority of my oil is liquid.

Solids I guess would be fats and lard.

The whites I'm talking about are the sickening sloppy stuff that goes clearish when heated. From what I've seen, they can contain an awful lot of water too (I've seen 1/3 water by volume!)
