Thank for showing the very nice good picture and your very good work.
Some filter aids use on the cloth and some height like cofee filter can improve the filteration quality.
In the case of the crude oils , the impurity of small colloidal particles act as the filterationmaking

Ian,
Not knowing your
titration results, or if you are using WVO or virgin oil, I will throw in my 1.5
cents.
I think the
difficulty in dissolving lye in methanol is a matter of the amount of lye needed
to be dissolved/liter of methanol. Dissolving 3.5g/L for virgin oil is easy
enough.
