I've heard that I can use Turmeric for titration
But I'm unsure how to mix it to use it for titration, can anyone help me out?

milkmam101,
you use it just like phenopthalein, except the colour change is different, yellow to red instead of clear to pink.
Go to ,the top of the page and type turmeric into the search (find), this will get you to a whole lot of discussion on the subject.

I use it and love it.
I mixed about a spoonfull of turmeric into a jar of isopropyl. shake hard, shake often, let settle. I have a layer of turmeric on the bottom of the jar, and the liquid is a strong yellow color.
My jar is a used and clean soy souce bottle, and has the 'dropper/shaker" top under the lid.
to use, just a few drops in the container with the isopropyl, blank titration, then add oil, and titrate.
I like the very dark red color change.

where is Fabens?
