You'll get a lot nicer results by mixing the goop with an equal amount of
water, letting it ferment for a day or three, and pouring all the crud off
the top. The clean seeds can be washed and dried in an old sieve. Of
course, the Seed Saver's Exchange has a German made machine that can
remove
the seeds from a pickup load of tomatoes as fast as you can throw them
in...
