I was totally thrown off thinking that he was doing something with barrels of mineral oil, when he was really saying that oil (crude oil) is so cheap right now that the economics of going biodiesel are a little iffy.

I kinda there myself. I'm pumping $1.90 dino diesel, and it costs me about $1.15 or so to make my own. That's with free WVO. So even though I can save .75 cents or so a gallon, that's not as attractive as when pump diesel was pushing $4.50 a gallon.

It's kinda made me lose interest in being aggresive to get free WVO from the locals.

So right now, my BioPro 190 is sitting idle. Might make someone a deal.
