Chinquapin Biodiesel

After a lot of hard work and what seems like a million trips to Lowe’s, the biodiesel processing shed is up and running.  We’ve made two successful batches of biodiesel (20 gal and 45 gal) that have been running in our three school tractors without any problems.  The fuel tested well on the two homebrewers tests we have done:  phLip test, and the 3/27 test.  Some photos of the shed are posted below.  Explanatory videos of the process are soon to come (though my flip camera is missbehaving so we might have to reshoot these videos next year).
