Hi. I had 5 mL of methanol to evaporate but to leave the vial at ambient temperature was not effective. A solution can be to use a speed vacuum concentrator (A sort of centrifugue with a vacuum pump) that evaporated the methanol in a few hours. Other alternative can be to split the sample in smaller containers such an eppendorfs or similar and to leave them at ambient temperature. This latter way is slower but I have noticed that this favored the evaporation.
