This may sound like a stupid question, there are such things in my book. If I'm using a pH meter instead of Phenolphthalein to titrate my WVO, should I just add the lye/water solution until I reach 8-9 pH? The real question is, am I merely going for a slightly basic solution or is there a certain

Digital meters don't work too well, due to lack of ions in the oil. They measure degree of acidity etc not amount of Go to phenolphthalein as the man says and save loads of grief. If you want to look a pH of oil, use an aquarium wide band pH tester - it does give an indication Biofuel at
