It is a 1 tablespoon butter to 1 cup cereal ratio based on the actual recipe listed. The original RKT recipe from the cereal box is a 1T:2C ratio.

If you look at the actual recipe, it is 6 tablespoons butter to 6 cups rice cereal. So its a 1 tablespoon butter:1 cup cereal ratio.

That only removes solids. Funky flavor chemicals like aldehydes and esters are still in the oil. This gelatin method not only removes the chunkies, but the funky flavor chemicals tend to be more water soluble and are also removed.

DE used for pool filters is calcinated (activated by heating) and has a larger particle size, both which render it ineffective for pest control. It also contains much more silica (60% compared to <2% for food grade) which is why it is not suggested for human consumption.
