There’s a couple of different kinds of hemp fuel.
Biodiesel (made from the pressed seeds)
Ethanol/Methanol (made from the fermented stalks)
The most technically involved method is Biodiesel.
You’ll need a lot of pressed hemp seed oil, phenolthalian solution, Methanol, and Sodium Methoxide (lye).
You’ll want to avoid getting wood-based Methanol.
You can get all of the required ingredients at grocery stores, hobby stores, and automotive stores.
You’ll need a 5-gallon bucket or more significant depending on the batch. You’ll also want an electric mixer.
If you’re going all DIY, then an electric drill with an attached paint mixer should do well.
After you’ve got all of the necessary ingredients, you’re on your way to creating your Biodiesel!
