Q. Where can I get plans for an ethanol still?

A. Blueprints and instructions are available for the Charles 803 ethanol still that will make 5 gallons or more an hour of 180-proof ethanol on the first run, every run. It is only 5 feet high and weighs only 28 lbs (13kg).

This is an advanced fourth-generation design. It is not a toy for making drinking alcohol: this is a serious tool for making your own fuel.

The blueprints are available from the designer, Robert Warren, former founding director of the California Alcohol Fuel Producers Association (CAPFA), a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting alternatives to using petroleum fuels.
 
***SINCE THE PASSING AWAY OF Mr WARREN, HIS DAUGHTER NANDA WILL SUPPLY THE PLANS 

Robert has constructed 130 to 140 working stills, and he has taught hundreds of people how to build stills and make their own fuel alcohol. His research on ethanol spans 25 years, and he was a founding member of CAPFA.
  • NOTE : AT PRESENT, THERE ARE A FEW OTHER SOURCES THAT OFFER THE PLANS FOR A FEE AND THEY WILL ( OR SO IS CLAIMED ) SUPPORT AND ASSIST IN THE CONSTRUCTION AND USE OF THE STILL.
  • THERE ARE EVEN SOURCES OFFERING PART KITS AND EVEN COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED STILLS.
  • THERE IS ALSO A SITE THAT OFFERS THE MANUAL AND PLANS FOR FREE ( SOME JOKER PURCHASSED THE PLANS AND HAS POSTED THEM AT SOME FORUM FOR FREE...)
  • ALL THE ABOVE SUPPLIERS ARE DOING BUSINESS BY PLAGIATING AND COPYING MR WARREN'S LIFE'S WORK...
  • THE ONLY OFFICIALL SOURCE FOR THE CHARLES 803 PLANS IS NANDA WARREN, DAUGHTER OF THE LATE ROBERT WARREN.
