Gear, I was thinking about something today. If you heat a grease above the drop point and the oil separates out what happens when you cool the grease? Does it go back to a grease like I was before or does the oil stay separated from the rest of the grease matrix?
I don't plan on trying this I just wonder what happens if I am heating a grease and I have a hot spot in the pan the causes some oil to separate oil.
This is what happens when I have too much free time.
