I look forward to receiving the samples.
I'm brewing this weekend so I'll get some ready for sending down to you.
If it didn't see any veg then the gunk must be some sort of glycerine. How does this sound as a theory:
If you brew and use the WBD or any orther sort of demething process and there is still residual traces of either NaOH/KOH/ASM and methanol then the bio can/could carry on reacting. If this is the case how do those who employ these methods know when it is catalyst and methanol free?
I'll PM you my address.
There may well be something in your theory, I hadn't thought about the reaction carrying on,
but had thought it was gly still held in the bio.
We all know that it will carry on dropping out well after the majority has been removed.
I wonder if KOH derived bio would have still built up like this, as the gly stays liquid.
The funny thing is there is no sign of anything in the tank/thank strainer,
but I have found it in the filter housing (although this was not solid, more jelly like), the pipe from filter to to pump and in the pump.
But not in the leakoff pipes or the return pipe, this puzzling me.
It's obviously due to the heat cool cycle of the engine allwing the gly (if that's what it is) to drop.
