also, i live in wisconsin, winter can get pretty cold at times. will the b100 "gel"?

i heard about what happened in minnestota last winter with the blend over there and i definately want to avoid that.

thanks in advance for any input.

Welcome to FTE If you are'nt "burnt out" on reading try here; http://biodieselcommunity.org They have the best info on the web. I use KOH as a catalist and use the glycerol By-product as a liquid fertilizer and as a fuel for my processer. I don't "wash" my Biodiesel, I use settling for 1 month as a substitute for washing, so I can't tell you anything about what to do with the wash water.
