Title: Mustard oil
Post by: Head Womble on February 06, 2014, 10:17:48 PM

Some of the oil I collected from the mosque yesterday was mustard oil (over 20L in 250ml bottles), I didn't notice in the dark Bash

So then, can I use this for bio, I know mustard seeds can be a problem when water washing.
Or do I just bung it in the tank as is (my merc not SWMBO's HDI).

Dr pepper test?
In theory, I guess it should be OK. Rape and mustard are not too distantly related.
Maybe if you stick it in the Merc, it might be worth giving a direct feed to the IP, instead of chucking it in the tank, just to see if it will run on it.
I'd be a bit wary of the stuff myself. It might just burn your skin.

It's actually used as a heir product so should be safe on skin.
But is marked not for human consumption.
