either way works, by adding the oil to the methoxide the reaction can be faster but most of us use a process where the methoxide is added slowly to the oil. I see by your join date you have been around for awhile. I was not trying to be alarmist in my previous post, the dangers are real!

| Don't inhale any of it. I hope you held your breath when transferring that to the glass container, especially if it was warm enough to melt plastic! The fumes are really bad news.
