It'll work fine through one layer of shirt, if you squeeze it. Grab the sides, pull them up, try to squeeze it out.

I would use something else than a shirt, like a fine meshed strainer but ok. I guess a shirt would work but shirts have diffrent materials and some will give worse results than other (I have tried using shirts for other straining projects)

This is generally the case. Don't give up. Good Luck

Ive simply blended the cutting without the core or skins and had great results. I just added lemon juice. It was hard to drink all of that though. If you throw away the slop, your throwing away quite a bit of the goods. I just dealt with the full stomach and some cactus gas. I turned out to be one hell of a trip.

It helps also if the pulpy material is warm/hot. Throw it on the stove for a few min. first.
Maybe try to strain it first with something more porous, then try the shirt/cloth.

My only suggestion is to keep boiling it. It's supposed to break down the snot.
