The Home Grown Fuels, biodiesel and ethanol
education and learning center, is located one mile
north of Spencer, Indiana on hwy 231. We should be
finishing up the building by mid-summer.
The staff at Home Grown Fuels hope to be holding
regular grass roots classes by later this summer or
early fall. These will be for biodiesel. The basic
chemistry of biodiesel, and building your reactor.
These classes are $150. With diesel at $5 a gallon it
might pay to learn how to make your own fuel.......
We hope to start our Home Grown Fuels Ethanol
classes within a few months. They will cover the
construction of a basic reflux column still. Mashing and
brewing. The cost is $150 .00.
Our solar and wind grass roots power classes will be
coming online later this year as well. We want
everyone to have the option of going off the grid as far
as commercial energy consumption is concerned. As a
consumer myself, I can't wait for the day when our
local power company has to send me a check!!!
All proceeds from our classes are being used to help
buy better lab equipment, and to make our facility the
best that it can be.. We will be adding our solar panels
a couple of panels at a time. And the same with our
wind generators. Please register early for our classes.
Producing your own home grown fuel on a grass roots
level, not only helps save our environment, it saves
you money as well. If everyone who consumed energy
out there tried to in some small way give back some ,
it would be a much cleaner planet for all of us to live
on.
Thanks Tim

Dad served as President of the oil chemical
and atomic workers, local 535 at Rock
Island Refinery in Indianapolis, Indiana.
That's about the same time he was
teaching me how to brew ethanol from a 6"
column evaporator he had brought home
from the scrap pile at the Rock. I got my
first alcohol producers permit in the mid
70's, back when the ATF handled it. I still
use that very same column today to
recover methanol from my biodiesel.......

dad would be home from a hard days work.

A couple of pictures from Rock Island
Refinery in Indianapolis, Indiana. The large
tower above was known as the Cat Cracker. I
spent quite a few summers inside that
column with an air hammer, chiseling the
built up coke from the walls.
The entire process of making gasoline and
diesel fuel the traditional way (out of crude
oil) is a dirty and environmentally destructive
process. It's exactly the opposite when
producing biodiesel and ethanol.
