Tom,
I originally used stir washing but I had problems
with emulsification. Because my test batches were so small, it wasn't
too much trouble to just bubble wash them. The product turned out great
with zero emulsification. When I move to larger batches I will stir wash
to save time.

Hey Will,
Why are you still bubble
washing?
Check out stir-washing at
JTF.
I just stir-washed 20 gal
(76L) of BD. It was a bit stubborn .... went 4 washes. Started this morning
will let final wash (just checked: crystal clear wash water) sit over night.
Bubble washing takes days ...... not to mention the potential for oxidizing
the fuel.
Sounds like a commercial,
no?
Give stir-washing a try.

Yes, BD destroys rubber. I
was bubble washing a test batch a few weeks ago and i used a rubber band to
tie a weight to the end of the bubble tube. I removed the rubber band
and let it sit in the sink and a few days later it was dissolved! Very
funny to see, unless of course it's your fuel line...
