This is what I do. I have a T-Fal cooker that I bought from BPS for small amounts. When I get done let the oil cool. Pour the oil back in the container for the next time and store in the fridge. The next time you want to use it let it get to room temp. Place a paper towel in the strainer rack that is part of the cooker (looks like stainless hardware cloth). Pour the oil on this, discard the paper towel with all the gunk and you are good to go!
