    Does the glycerine make the hand sanitizer's alcohol less prone to evaporation? If so would a large amount for this use be beneficial for storage?

    Thanks! Very interesting and very well explained. By the way, paper towels are very absorbent, I think that if you divide it and use one ply over a funnel, will be much better.

      Burning alcohol indoors is 100% safe. Just make sure that it's not an airtight space. In other words, anything that has a flame must have oxygen to burn and consumes oxygen
