Rancid oil, hooray! I took it as an opportunity to try out the oil brining technique to freshen it up. That means mix the oil with a 3% NaCl solution for a while then let it settle out.
If you do this, do not shake! Don't do it!
I was in a hurry so I figured it would go faster if I shook the stuff up a few times before leaving the workshop and let it settle overnight.
Fast forward 24 hours and I had most of the water on the bottom and an unbreakable emulsion of brine cloudiness on top.
Strike one. Gotta wait for more oil to go bad and try again.
