Learn to make biodiesel fuel safely and build the equipment for doing so

This fast-paced class will cover all of the necessary chemistry and
techniques needed for learning standard backyard biodiesel homebrewing,
and includes a lot of hands-on practice making small test batches of
biodiesel (and making guided mistakes so you can learn how to avoid them
or fix them in the future), as well as a heavy emphasis on quality
control and testing.

I will have my processor trailer outside with an Appleseed
(www.biodieselcommunity.org/appleseedprocessor
<http://www.biodieselcommunity.org/appleseedprocessor>) homebrew processor
system on it, and we will also cover some 'advanced' techniques such as
ethanol-based biodiesel.

Optional: In the last two hours of class we'll be building biodiesel
processors for those who wish to purchase the parts to take one home. In
these classes I usually use www.b100supply.com kits. Their deadline for
shipping kits is past, so to get parts for this class, please get an
electric water heater and let me know that you want me to pick up parts
for you (same cost as a discounted www.b100supply kit, parts cost is
approx. $250) If you do not want to buy a processor, you can certainly
just help the others and learn to do it yourself later.
