Remember my odd titration results?
Well, now I measured the lye on a precision scale (measures up to hundredths of

given the size of the solid NaOH pips). Close enough. I titrated again, and

PET will work for methoxide. It is a more brittle plastic than HDPE so I would
not perpetually rely on the same bottle batch in and batch out.
Also, mixing methoxide in a bottle or jug that can be sealed is not advisable,
