Thanks Wes:
I also got the following from John Ferguson (who cannot post to
the list for some reason), thanks to John as well. This all
looks much more doable and cost effective now.
...If you are looking for Lye/Methanol in the Ottawa area, find
BSC chemicals on Cyrville Road (they are in the phone book).
Last time I bought Methanol there it was $195 Cdn for 205 litres
plus a $60 barrel deposit. (I think you can also get 20 litre
pails for about $30) 4kg Lye was $20 or so, I forget the exact
price.

Hi Ray
I have not been able to keep up with the list, so I missed your first
message.
I bought my NaOH at a local animal feed store in Smiths Falls On Can .
the
price was either $25 or $35 for 5 Kg. the price was current a few
months
ago .
I am sure it will be available at most 'feed stores'. If they do not
know
what you are asking for simply ask for Lye.

Hi Ray,
No answers? don't despair. Our dear Darryl must be busy. He's up near
you. The lye is not expensive, a Cdn Tire thing, and he told me last
year
where to get methanol. Erg, I'm looking for it in the old letters.

Hello to my fellow brewers from Ontario, Canada:
I just tried pricing MeOH and NaOH from Fisher Scientific (via
Good Health and Safety in Mississauga). MeOH @ $79CAD for 20L
and NaOH @ $267CAD for 5kg both before tax and shipping. That
won't do! There must be cheaper sources. I'm near Ottawa.
How do you make it economically viable? Diesel is running at
about $0.90CAD per litre right now, but at these prices I can
only hope to break even.
Ray
