Good question and good thinking!
Make sure it is cool, and not standing out in the sun building up pressure. If
the drum is left outdoors in direct sunlight it can heat up and the internal
pressure can get dangerously high. If the top is bowed outwards it may be under

I'll be bringing home my first drum of methanol (I've been buying it
expensively in 5-gallon pails until now) in the next week or so. As I

Chris,
First, stay away from any open fire or very hot
objects(particularly metals).
Second, Open the small cap first slowly to allow the
air pressure to equalize.
and lastly open the big cap.
As much as possible keep the caps on as moisture would
easily accumulate in the methanol.

I made a batch over the weekend from a source of oil that was
semi-solid when I collected it. It had the highest titration I have

(methanol process).
Why are you using 5gm as the basic amount? Well, we all know where

when it's well warmed up, switch over to kerosene. Many such adaptions also

The subject of filters has been kicked around alot in the past. The
place to look is in the archives. They are at:
groups.yahoo.com/group/biofuel/messages and 'biodiesel' instead of
'biofuels' also. Keith, the moderator can point you to other or
