Grangemouth fuel . "Maintenance" dose of biocide and separate additive since the fame shite has been added . Plus storage tanks have filters.

So far still no problems but do see this crap inside the tank now . It feels like butter rather than a growth
Thats a fair bit of what looks like sugar crystals on the dry insides of the tank above the diesel level.
weird that. might have wiped a tiny piece found in one of mine a year ago but not looked that closely since & currently have a full load of FAME free in one tank here
supplied by Johnston Fuels. Time will tell what how good it is meant to be.
