oldcorollas Forums Junkie Location: Kita-Ku, Sapporo, Japan Registered: January 2003	Re: how to make methanol / ethanol and still Sun, 18 September 2005 14:16 rn-85 wrote on Mon, 19 September 2005 00:01 ok so the fuel prices are a risein' me harteys (geting ready for tomorra you lubbers) sot he times acomin' to consider home-made fuel options. im new to these forums so im not sure if ive got this in the right place but i wanna build a still to make the fore mentioned fuels. any helpful and informative details would be great so please step on up and share with me your wares. to be honest, you will consume more electrical power than it would cost to buy at at what? $2-3 per litre... by distilling you only get to maybe 85 or 90% alcohol, and after that you ned drying agents to remove the water. as well as all the cooling water for conensing the vapour. plus... you can ferment up to maybe 15% alcohol.. if you ue 50L of petrol a week, thats 100L of alcohol. = 670L of fermented solution, as long as you have 100% retention of the alcohol. to ferment and distill 700 litres of brew each week is not reall feasible at home... and it's smell like buggery but if you are serious, you could start on a small scale with glas istillation gear from a lab supply place... for bigger stuff,you may want copper or stainless as it has higher heat ransfer properties = faster throughput.. and you might want to check alcohol laws, i think exception may be taken to generating large volumes of alcohol without paying tax. anyhoo, a few ideas/..
