<x-charset ISO-8859-1>Just wondering what other people are using to mix up the lye and methanol with. Seems that I read alot about putting it in a sealed container to avoid fumes... but then how do you mix it up? Just shake it around or do you need to have some sort of sealed mixed in the carboy??! Does that do enough?
The "Foolproof" method notes that "... It's nasty stuff and it's not easy to mix -- and it must be thoroughly mixed before you use it, with all the lye dissolved" and goes on to note that you just give it a series of swirls and then let it sit. Is that enough to thoroughly mix it?! Sounds good to me if so as I was planning on having to mix up several small batches in my blender and then pouring them into a container together, sealing that and then having it gravity fed through a tube into the processor. So,... just pour, shake thoroughly, and drain..?!. Also, does the base vs acid process demand more or less thorough mixing?
