Appleseed Biodiesel Processor Kit
This kit includes nearly everything you'll need to build a working Biodiesel Processor from an electric hot water heater. It comes with all of the plumbing, fittings, pump, and hookups to get you up & running. You simply provide an electric hot water heater and a stand to mount it to and you'll be making biodiesel in no time!

About The Kit:
The kit is based off of the open source Appleseed Processor. It uses the same principles and works the exact same way. We just sourced all of the parts together into a single kit and put together an easy to use, step-by-step set of plans to make it easier to use this popular open-source processor

About The Plans
The kit comes with our popular step-by-step processor plans that have well over 175+ pictures to show you how to build the processor. It also includes an unlimited login to our online version of the plans.

With over 175+ high-resolution pictures that illustrate step-by-step how to build these great Biodiesel Processors, we make it easy! To make it even simpler, we had a graphic designer professionally create a 10 page, high-quality easy to read set of diagrams that breaks down every part on the processor as well as detailed wiring diagrams. We even include a downloadable version of the plans, pictures, and diagrams! It just doesn't get simpler than this!

The plans include a listing of all the supplies and tools needed to build this great biodiesel processor and even show you how and where you'll be using each tool!

We also include extra bonus material to all of the photos we used to produce the plans, well over 250 high resolution pictures!

MAKING BIODIESEL CAN BE DANGEROUS!
You will be dealing with Methanol (a poisonous alcohol), a strong base of either Sodium Hydroxide (commonly called Lye) or Potassium Hydroxide (commonly called Caustic Potash), both of which can burn you if they get on your skin, oil (which can be downright messy), and heat and electricity.
YOU WILL NEED TO BE CAREFUL! YOU CAN GET HURT!
