There is provided a liquid filter comprising a filter vessel having a removable cover, a fluid inlet, an engagement lip for a filter and a fluid outlet, an open top, fluid impermeable sidewalls, and a fluid outlet at a bottom of the insert. Into the filter vessel is inserted a water impermeable insert having an insert lip engageable in a sealing relationship with the filter vessel engagement lip. A single cartridge filter is inserted within the cartridge filter insert having a generally solid top surface, a bottom fluid outlet sealingly engageable with the insert outlet and a filter material. The cartridge filter top surface forms a weir for diverting fluid to be filtered toward an annular opening created between the filter cartridge and the insert, the annular opening having a cross sectional area, which generally is from 25 to 100% of the cross sectional area of the filter cartridge outlet opening.
