I use same setup as you but put one of those flexible top straws down the side to allow the air to escape. Works good but after about 5l I have to change filters. Too slow and too impatient

I use a Harris size 4 filter over a 4 litre pickling jar held on with a rubber band. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

20 bucks for the frame, 20 bucks for 50 filter papers, although the normal ones might fit and be cheaper.
