Syringe filters seem very impractical. I've used them in an analytical lab and they clog easily. When dealing with a lot of fat/lipids I don't think they would work well.
Vacuum assisted filtration with scientific filter papers work best.
When selecting a pump, you need to consider getting one that can handle solvents or add a coldtrap to extend pump lifetime. Here's a link to a complete set.
If you don't have very much product and are not interested in spending the money, you can try a hand pump. I've never used one but found it through a quick amazon search.
Thanks! Someone else has recommended filtration and I think that something like that plus your Pectinex suggestion would do it.
> How does the Buchner Filter work?
Here is an example. It is a flask, with a stopper and funnel on top. You put filter paper in the funnel, and attach the vacuum pump to the nozzle on the side of the flask. This allows you to pull a vacuum in the flask, pulling whatever is in the funnel through the paper.
It will work to clarify your spirits (mostly), it is what I use in conjunction with cold crashing and decanting. Just stick your spirit in the freezer for a few days/week and the cloudy proteins will settle out to the bottom. Then just draw off the top clear liquid. Then use the funnel to polish it off if you need to.
