I found this thing rummaging through the parts room at work today. It was originally designed as a filter for a pesticide sprayer. It was new in the box and has never been used (before someone calls me an idiot for scavenging parts from a pesticide sprayer) I am worried that it isn't going to be large enough. The bowl has roughly a quart capacity. And I think I can fit a couple ounces of leaf hops inside the screen if I really pack them in. My other concern is heat resistance. It looks to be same type of plastic used in home water filters...thoughts????...wnc
