Nope. Appalachian foothills of Southeast Ohio. Haven't been north of the
49th parallel in quite sometime. Rather miss BC and the Yukon.
You won't need to find a manufacturing plant. Look for bulk fuel
distributors, propane or petroleum, either or. They'll be able to
acquire the methanol or hook you up.

You are in Montreal, are you not? Ottawa is a government town as
I am sure you know. There are no manufacturing, bulk fuel plants
or race tracks here or even near. Where do you get yours?

NaOH or KOH from supply houses, inclusive of internet, that serve
home soapmakers.
NaOH in pound lots at the neighborhood grocery or hardware store.
CH3OH in 55 gallon lots from bulk fuel plants and/or distributors.
Larger bulk propane distributorships use methanol as a solvent for
water condensate inside the bulk tanks, keeping it mixed with the
propane. They should be able to point you to their sources.
Automobile track racers use methanol as their prime fuel. They should
be able to point you in an economically efficient direction

Hello to my fellow brewers from Ontario, Canada:
I just tried pricing MeOH and NaOH from Fisher Scientific (via
Good Health and Safety in Mississauga). MeOH @ $79CAD for 20L
and NaOH @ $267CAD for 5kg both before tax and shipping. That
won't do! There must be cheaper sources. I'm near Ottawa.
How do you make it economically viable? Diesel is running at
about $0.90CAD per litre right now, but at these prices I can
only hope to break even.
