Good day to you all

I have been making BD for about 4months and the end result is always clear sparking bio D.
But I started using used cooking oil and my first batch is a little foggy or misty. It tested PH7 and it look good with the water and oil test, is this normal. I left it air drying for two days but not much clearer.
Have I done something incorrect or is normal with filter used oil.

Thank Danny E

This is normal you should wash and dry, and it will be clearer.
on this page at the bottom you can see an example of washed and dried BD.Drying Washed Biodiesel - Collaborative Biodiesel Tutorial
