Brian, so I guess you were never the cadillac-man type?
This is your situation. You've got yourself a Caddy of a PH Tester.
Enjoy.

I'd say that is a sweet deal! Do you have a calibration solution to
verify the probe is not screwed? I work in a university and I wouldn't
be surprised at all to grab a fine instrument and find out someone had
demoed the probe and not said a word. It would be a good idea to verify
it first.

Holy cow!
I asked for it and I received a doozy.
The pH meter the university lent me is a bit of overkill I should think.
Tell me what you think.

loud as I was getting ready for work.
On the other hand some people are really hard to help, and I don't
have any clear idea of how many of them there might be either. Take

I stopped by one of the small town hardware stores on my way to work
this morning. I was hunting for the 99% Isopropyl alcohol I had bought
there years ago. No luck they don't carry it any longer. They did have
other alcohols which I am unfamiliar with. methyl ester ketone? (sp)
I have no
Thanks Zeke
I was planning on going to the dreaded WalMart this afternoon as they
are the only store left in this small town. I will be looking for
denatured alcohol there.

Hi biodieselers
I am here with my wife in our kitchen working on our first titration of WVO.
We have determined through heating a sample of WVO that no water is
present. We have found a soil test kit that has several types of
litmus paper. We did several tests of the litmus to determine if it

Hey Brian
I've run into problems with measuring lye myself, and ultimately
managed to work out a loose but somewhat workable way to measure out
the lye by volume. It produced some of my best results to date, too, so
I think I'm safe to share it with yas.
Sodium Hydroxide has a density of 2.1
Great thanks Kurt
This is what we were looking for. We even attempted to find the
specific gravity of lye, but that didn't pan out. It was getting too
complicated for us. A trip to town would be simpler we figured.

Like I said, I had some of my best results to date on test batches
using this method, a nice good clear yellow color top layer and a
smooth separation, and it's so far washed very nicely. At least you
don't also have to contend with 76%

don't know squat worth sharing yet.
