George, I just used a fine muslin cloth, It used to be known as 'Mutton Cloth' You be able to find small bags made with a draw string thats ideal, Home brewers also use these bags for hanging hops in the brew. The coolant is a generic oil based, water soluble type that is common mixed from 5:1 to 100:1.
Also, do not worry about restricting the flow with an inline tap as impeller type pumps actually decrease in load the higher the restriction.
