Prepare a fluted filter paper and stemless or short-stemmed funnel clamped above the filter flask. | Pour a few mL of solvent through the funnel, and allow the solvent to boil and get the funnel hot. | When the mixture to be filtered is boiling, pour the mixture into the funnel in portions, returning it to the heat source in between additions. | Rinse the filter paper with hot solvent if crystals are seen on the paper. |
