I was filtering through a .20 filter. It would not come out...i didnt know why. I pushed pretty hard, it started comming out. Then after about 5 seconds it made a popping sound. Idk where the sound was made. Then the air in the back of the syringe was down to about half of what was there, so it released the air. Then it did it again. Did i blow my filter? |

Also, my oil in the beaker when heating...was slightly steaming. Is that bad?

You bypassed the air lock in the syringe from pressing too hard, it happens.
Oil steaming is not necessarily bad, but its much too hot for what were doing here.

It was only steaming for like 3 seconds n i took it off. So, i dont need to refilter my solution then correct? These .2o's arnt too bad once u get them going.

By 'steam', I wonder is it was really 'smoke' as in, "the oil hit its smoke point."
That's one of the things I like about the grape seed oil that I use: it has a very high smoke point compared to most other oils.
