Hi, I did a blender test batch of biodiesel last night. I titrated to 2ml, so I used 5.5g of lye and mixed it in with 200ml of methanol. I then heated the oil up(1 litre), and put it in the blender, and mixed for 15-20 minutes. It quickly began to separate and the biodiesel at the very top inch of the blender after the first 15 minutes or so was quite clear. I woke up in the morning and only 125 ml or glycerin settled out and the biodiesel is cloudy. It dropped to only 50 degrees last night. Shouldn't there by at least 200 ml of glycerin settled at the bottom? There are only 2 layers, the top, light and slightly cloudy, and the dark glycerin. Where is the extra 75 ml of glycerin, and at what temp does the biodiesel clear up? Thanks,
