Repeat after me, folks, "don't mess with methanol."
This demo (procedure here) is done using ethanol which would be way safer - but not totally safe, of course. The colors aren't quite as brilliant and clean as those done with methanol, but as I've said before, methanol isn't remotely safe to use here.
I do wish that I had access to the CLEAPSS document, however, but it's behind a login wall. It's apparently free for schools in Great Britain but not 'round here.
