You building HHO as well RL ? I am on my third prototype (trying to get the cost of my electrodes down but all stainless is still giving me the best results) ...I have been looking at “Backyard Ethanol” but can't afford a still yet , looking on the net it seams that a “20 gallon* “ unit is going to run me over $3,000 ...and at a 8 to 1 reduction that means only 2 gallons (or less) each pass...I am still looking for something like a commercial boiler to build my own with at around 100 gallons capacity.
What interests me most is the idea of using grass clippings and Oranges as a mash base (requires enzymes) but your idea of using paper trash for heat is a good one I plant to use a “open” burn chamber and scrap wood/tree limbs/paper etc
*a 20 gallon still can not be filled to 20 gallons it only holds a bit over 18 gallons of liquid.

LOL you “car” has good taste David ! Mine is not that picky ...but I would like to sample some of your “fuel” some time.

LOL why not do both , we can get “tanked up” along with the car...actually federal law dos say we have to “de-nature” our home brew to be legal and I am still trying to get clarification on the allowable quantity you can produce with out having to get an EPA permit...but if you will take a shift with the shotgun to keep the revenuers away we can make all we want.
Speaking of witch I wonder what the IRS will have to say about all this....

now i though we could make a 100 gallions for our own usei still make my own frangelica with hazel nuts i cook my self and kaluha my kids love it i give them a gallion when they come to visit
