Is there a limited shelf life of the methoxide after it has been mixed in the carboys?

I had a batch ready to go last night when I discovered that my heating element has apparently burned out.

I'll need to empty the processor and change the element - might take a day or two to get things back online w/ other things to take care of.

On a side note, this batch of oil titrated at 6 milliters - Much worse than all the other batches. Thoughts?


Thanks,
Steve

Kept cool, dark and closed it will go a couple weeks. Give it an extra shake when ready to use it.

If ya got time check for water in the oil, it will raise the titration.
