Thinking about makeing bio diesel

Well guys, I have had my 01 7.3 diesel for about a week now and I have been researching bio diesel alot today. I think i am going to start building my set up soon to start makeing it, but I am still unclear on a few things. I pretty much understand the whole processing tank and wash tank concept and how to make one. I am haveing trouble finding good info on the net that explains how I do "titrateing". Also, is this something that would be safe to set up in the garage or am I going to risk a fire by doing this. One of my biggest concerns is a bad batch. I am afraid that if I make a bad batch or do something wrong I could cause damage to my truck, what ways are there to test the finishsed product and be sure it is correct?

Lastly, what advice can you guys give me on obtaining the cooking oil? What sources do you use? Will any used cooking oil work? how do you transport the oil home? thanks
