CT clamp, multiple readings with different values. How to filter?

Well, I added a CT clamp to one of my Wemos D1 mini, using an ADC (ADS1115) in differential mode. I have an SCT13-000 which outputs 50mA current instead of 1V, so I added a 33ohm burden resistor. I live in Argentina so the mains voltage is 220v.

What I’m getting from the sensor right now:

As you can see, readings are not stable. Consumption measured with a multimeter is 2.28A

As per the doc, I should add this to the config

filters:
      - calibrate_linear:
          # Measured value of 0 maps to 0A
          - 0 -> 0
          # Known load: 2.28A
          # Value shown in logs: xxxx
          - xxxx -> 2.28

But since I’m not getting a stable reading, how could I map those values to 2.28A?
