Yup. I add a little bit of lye at a time and slosh 5-10 times. So, by the time all the lye is in for a typical batch, I've sloshed it a couple dozen times. Then, every 15 minutes for about an hour and a half, I slosh it five more times. My biodiesel is has a beautiful reaction and the glycerin never fails to separate within 3 weeks. Of course, just for safety's sake, I then put it through a dual-stage filtration phase (fryer filter first, then 1-2 toilet paper rolls in a Frantz filter per 35 gallon batch).
Good stuff.
