Well I have been out a bit so I am late in reply, after reading all the good replys so far I really have nothing to add but if you get to much methanol or base in your procedure - it makes washing harder and you get poorer results. Keep at it you'll get there. Jim Parraga Pablo-Francisco

Hello Jim Tallow has a low Iodine Value, not high. Variously given as 50-60, 33-47, 50, 35-48, but not higher than 60. Low IV, high melting point, not good for winter, but it's not a drying oil given to rapid oxidation and polymerisation. Iodine Values
