I was just gonna take it out of digest mode and have everything from
this list go straight to a folder that I just made but I think
that's basically what the link is saying to do, so thanks

Hey thanks everyone for the advice, I'll try the hot water bath idea and
hope for the best, just hope I don't get it too hot and evaporate my

Thanks Jim, that is very helpful and I'll be sure to monitor my temps
closely as I blend. I thought maybe there was a chance that it would
hold the same temp for that reason, but would never have guessed a temp
increase.

Steve,
Have your test batches passed the quality test?
tes?
You are using new, unused veg oil?

I do my test batches in a pot on a coleman stove out in the garage so I
can maintain the temp.

Mike,
Test batches can be difficult .. well worth the effort.
Blenders provide excellent agitation, but it is difficult to maintain
the proper temp.
PET bottles allow one to maintain temp better
