Heat and vacuum is pretty hard to beat for drying oil IMHO.

I am just getting started making BD. I have
had some trouble getting all the water removed from the WVO. Is it a must
to heat the oil if so how hot, how long? Will it settle out on its own if
just sits if so how long do I need to let it settle? Any info will be

I don't know where you are at in the learning process but if you have
not started with virgin oil and had multiple success in small batches do
yourself a favor and start there and learn the titration before you
start with WVO.
As far as heating it there is a whole section on getting the

Greetings. Has anyone tried using an absorptive polymer to remove water

I was thinking about something like that a few months ago but stayed away from it because I felt that this forum would have covered it already if it was worth doing.

I guess I will join you in venturing into that area.

I ran some WVO into which I added a measured amout of water through a
slow filter filled with silica beads and it worked pretty well removing
the water. I haven't yet tried heating it to see if it pops but visually
