Yes...sorry...closer to 150 degrees is needed.

1500 gallons! Holy cow...that's a huge processor, I'm impressed! You must be making B100 for sale? I'm just trying to be a home brewer in the garage. I'm almost ready to build a batch. I have a few more things to put together.

I was thinking of recovering methanol directly from the reactor. After the reaction is completed, say after an hour of mixing, I'm thinking of raising the temperature at the end to say 150 to drive off the excess methanol. This would be done with the mixing pump still running and before the settling of the glycerin. What do you think?
