Your confusing taking a sample for titration, which occurs before adding methoxide, with 5% prewash which is opening the lid and adding 2.5 gal hotwater then mixing for an additional 5 minutes. You may also be confusing the stench of hot rancid oil with the smell of methanol. I think tomorrow we will have to lock you in the conex with an open reactor full of oil and methoxide so you know the difference. :>) On 9/1/06, Zac Imboden <[email protected]> wrote: > > When I get a sample of oil from the heating tank for titration, it is oil > that has not yet had methoxide added to it, correct?
