Help Please!! Need answer today!

I'm using a Buchner funnel with a built in filter disk I think they call them gritted Buchner funnels but it crapped out on me half way through my extraction I think the disk is clogged I read online how to clean them but it requires the use of solvents that are not commonly avalible and it takes a long time can someone please tell me something I can go grab from the hardware store in the next 2 hours that would do the trick I need to clean it instantly

Whatever is going to clean it is going to dissolve your product. I'm guessing organic gunk of some kind? Warm toluene should work.

Thanks EDuck I got it filtered through other means trying to separate powder from water is a pain in the ass and from what I have been reading fritted Buchner funnels are a bitch to clean
