Super easy. If you use the caulking gun method, don't try and filter too much at a time; using a 60cc syringe, I find that if there's more than 40cc of oil to filter, the plunger goes back too far and you have to push on it manually until it will fit.
I've cooked and filtered this way a couple times now, I think it's time to get a proper vacuum setup.
Totally different contexts. You're talking about home brewing (much larger volumes). We're talking about re-filtering a 10 mL vial. Don't need a caulking gun for that.
