Can you make glycerin blocks from non gelling glycerin? 
I have about 20 gallons of liquid glycerin and about 5 Gal. that gelled.

Pure glycerol will melt somewhere around 20C I believe.  However, if you have 
any impurites (espically Methanol) then it will stay in a liquid state at a 
lower temp.  Is your glyc. kept air tight?  Does it (presuming you acquired it 
from transesterification) still have the [K|Na]OH still in it?

yes it is air tight. I haven't done methanol recovery on the glycerin and it
still has the naoh in it. I saw the five gallon methanol recovery still (for
glycerin) on journey to forever's site. but others say to leave the methanol
in to make a more flammable log. It also is still caustic.
Thanks for the reply
Jeremy
