methanol
Hi
I am looking for a supply of methanol and what the going price is. The only place a found wants $2.65 a gallon, is that reasonable? I am in Northeast Pa.
I looked at some of the older post on here and they seem to be from out west. Thanks

Would agree that is pretty reasonable for smaller amounts. My last batch was $4.02 / gallon, but usually get it during the summer for $2.16. I get 5 gallon pails. Watch the quality, the more expensive stuff I got was not as good as the cheaper, which I got East River this summer. Good Methanol will have a fairly violent reaction when making Methoxide, and will generate a good amount of heat. The lesser quality has a much less violent reaction...
