DISTRIBUTORSHIPS WELCOME
 An Introduction to Producing
Alcohol as a Fuel
We at THE REVENOOR CO have been in the alcohol producing industry for the last three generations and although we
produced and sold an “illegal moonshine beverage” the art of producing alcohol fuel is basically the same. Alcohol fuel is no
more than moonshine whiskey.

Is making alcohol legal?

To produce alcohol fuel, the only requirement is a simple permit issued by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.
It costs nothing and we know of no one ever being turned down. We furnish you with the application form with the purchase
of a still. The application and all your questions can be answered on a great website. www.ttb.gov . The form TTB F 5110.74
is the Alcohol Fuel Producers Permit that you can download.

Is alcohol fuel new?

The first model cars were run on alcohol, as were many tractors and industrial motors. About that time gasoline became so
plentiful and inexpensive that it was not practical to continue the use of alcohol. Germany fought the remainder of the war
with alcohol when their petroleum lines were cut off. As long as there have been races, race cars, stoves and lanterns, there
has been alcohol fuel. All Indy cars now race on ethanol. If they can race, you know we can drive to town on ethanol.

Alcohol – the clean fuel!

As earlier generations who used alcohol lamps will testify, alcohol burns clean, does not pollute and can be burned in a
closed room without toxic or odor effects – without the need for mechanical ventilation systems. Because it is such a clean
burning fuel, you need not use the smog devices on your engine as you are emitting only carbon dioxide which is essential
for our plant life to produce clean fresh oxygen and water. So if you are using only alcohol as a fuel, you can remove your
smog devices and recover the power and mileage you have lost by having these devices on your automobile. Smog devices
rob an average 7 % of your fuel. Alcohol is also widely used in marine stoves, etc. since an alcohol fire may be extinguished
with water.

Alcohol burns more completely than gasoline. You may recall the days when spark plugs were wired to the tailpipes of cars
to make flames shootout the tailpipes. This occurred because the gasoline was not being completely burned in the engine. It
passed right through the engine and out the exhaust system.

Octane – Prices and Shortages

Do you really think gas prices are going to come down and stay down? Can you see any reason why they won’t keep
escalating? What about shortages caused by foreign oil supplies (by wars)? Are you prepared to produce your own fuel in
the event of another shortage or gas rationing? Most people feel that there is nothing that they can do to stop the oil barons.
But at the same time we support them by buying their products. They know they can charge whatever price they wish and we
will pay it. We have seen shortages and high gas prices first in 1973 and as recent in 2003.

There is an alternative
Alcohol has been a proven product and motor fuel for nearly a century. It comes from products grown on top of the earth
surface. It is non-polluting. It emits only CO2 (carbon dioxide) which is essential to plant life, and water, which is essential
to most all types of life. Alcohol has a much higher octane rating (108) than gasoline. There are very few of us in a position
to produce gasoline, but very few of us who can not produce our own alcohol fuel.

Alcohol and Gasoline (Gasohol)

There are few advantages in mixing alcohol and gasoline together. If you intend to do so, you will need at least 195 proof
alcohol to avoid separation of the alcohol and gasoline. But 160 to 180 proof ETHANOL used straight is A MUCH
BETTER FUEL. We urge you to conduct your own simple comparison test by placing a small amount of alcohol and a
small amount of gasoline into clean separate containers and light each afire. You will notice a difference in the clean blue
flame of the alcohol and the dirty yellow flame and the black smoke of the gasoline. After the two fuels have completely
burned and the flame has gone out, take a white cloth or tissue and wipe the containers. There will be no black residue from

2
the alcohol. After conducting the experiment, can you image the reactions of the public, if alcohol was in use worldwide and
filthy gasoline was introduce as a replacement?

What does “Proof” Mean?

One percent alcohol represents two proof alcohol. Example: 100 proof is 50 % alcohol and 50 % water. Therefore, 160
proof is 80 % alcohol and 20 % water.

Ethanol versus Methanol

The REVENOOR stills described and offered in the catalog are sold for the production of ethanol (ethyl – alcohol). Ethanol
is made from grains, potatoes, sugar beets, etc. Methanol (methyl-alcohol) or wood alcohol has only about 2/3’s the BTU’s
(British Thermal Units – a measure of energy) as that of ethanol and therefore is a less efficient fuel, as it gets less mileage
per gallon.

Alcohol as a Beverage & Water Stills

REVENOOR stills are safe for distilling water for drinking purposes and other uses. For distilling water, you will need a
charcoal filter (listed on the accessories page). REVENOOR stills have also been used as mint distillers as well as distilling
different chemicals that react to other metals. We have had over the years a number of customers who have gone on to
produce and market beverage alcohol using our copper stills and equipment. All our copper stills are able to produce
beverage grade alcohol such as brandies, liquors, whiskey, vodka, etc.

Tax Credits
Alcohol fuel producers may qualify for TAX CREDITS (tax credits come right off the total of your tax liability, not a
deduction.) There is up to 51 cents per gallon Federal tax credit for every gallon of fuel alcohol you produce. A number of
states offer further tax incentive on property and income.

Alcohol Furnace Fuel / Green houses

Most oil burning furnaces have a carburetor with an adjustable jet that will burn alcohol. Your furnace filters will very
seldom have to be replaced because alcohol is such a clean burning fuel with no fumes. Alcohol gives off carbon into the air
instead of carbon monoxide.

It is very beneficial to burn alcohol in greenhouses. Some studies report up to 200 % increase due to carbon dioxide and
water vapor emission promoting extra growth in plants.

Automobile Conversions
Our “SIMPLE SOUR MASH TO SIMPLE ALCOHOL FUEL” book contains a complete section on this subject, in
addition to much more valuable and useful information relating to alcohol.

Sour Mash Method

We use and recommend the SOUR MASH METHOD for making alcohol. With this method, the mash is not cooked. This
enables you to use your mash over and over. The process is simple:

1. You make a “mash” out of corn, grains, potatoes, sugar beets, fruits, etc. with water, yeast and a sweetening agent
such as molasses.
2. The mash makes a “beer” during the fermentation.
3. The “still” takes the alcohol out of the beer during distillation. Only the liquid beer is placed in the cooker using the
SOUR MASH method. This enables you to use your mash over and over. Cooked mash can be used only once.

If you choose to cook your mash using enzymes, all REVENOOR stills will work equally well using this method.

What about instructions?

We furnish a complete set of instructions in a free copy of our “SIMPLE SOUR MASH TO SIMPLE ALCOHOL FUEL”
book and a free copy of our “REVENOOR STILL OPERATORS MANUAL” with the purchase of each REVENOOR
still. Using these two books, you should have no difficulty. We have customers reporting up to 198 proof one time through,
although you would only need 160 to 180 proof to run straight alcohol in your car.

One Year Warranty
REVENOOR stills are covered by limited warranty for one year after date of purchase. Within this one year from the date
of purchase, the REVENOOR will repair or replace your still if it is found to be deficient by reason of defect in either
workmanship or materials. This warranty will not apply if your still has been damaged in transit, (you should open and
inspect your still for damage upon receipt, because the shipper is responsible for damage in transit) if it is damaged from
abuse, misuse, negligence, or accident, if it is improperly installed or in anyway modified. Should it be necessary for the still
to be returned to our factory for repairs, transportation cost to and from our factory are the owner’s responsibility and must be
prepaid.

Style and Capacity of still

Each of the REVENOOR stills are designed with a temperature controlled tower or column for added efficiency. The 5, 10,
25, 50 and 100 gallon stills are solid copper built to last a lifetime. The 300 and 1,000 gallon stills have a heavy duty, treated
steel cooker and solid copper detachable column. The 300 and 1,000 gallon stills are offered in copper as an option for
beverages.

The gallon size of the still is the cooker capacity. Example, a five gallon REVENOOR still holds five gallons of “beer,” a
25 gallon still holds 25 gallons of “beer” etc. Each unit is listed with the actual alcohol production rates on the page that
describes the still in more detail. As you will notice, the larger stills are more efficient and take considerably less attention.

Safety and Maintenance

REVENOOR stills are manufactured of very high-quality materials and are completely safe. Each REVENOOR still is
built with a safety valve and operates on less than one pound of pressure. The temperatures for operation are from 173 to 210
degrees F. (78.3 to 98.8 C.) Alcohol doesn’t ignite from fumes like gasoline will, therefore, it is much safer than gasoline,
although it is a flammable liquid and must be treated as such. Since you are placing only the liquid in the still, maintenance
and cleaning is no problem, as they very seldom need maintenance. These are very heavy duty, high-grade solid copper units
with silver soldered fittings, built to last a lifetime and need only an occasional washing out.

What size do I need?

When making your decision on which size and type of still you want, you should first decide the amount of fuel you wish to
produce. Then decide the type of heat best suited for your area and needs. The average auto uses 800 gallons of fuel per year
and a single acre of sugar beets for example would yield about 1200 gallons of alcohol. If you purchase all of your
ingredients you can still produce your own fuel for less than the price of gasoline. Each still size is listed with the related
equipment following. The following REVENOOR stills offered will produce the specified amount of alcohol per run if your
mash contains at least 15 % alcohol content in your beer and the time element for production is figured from the time the still
is up to temperature.

Some folks have more time to produce fuel then do others. Therefore you may wish to set up a larger plant to produce a lot
of fuel at one time and then shut it down until your reserves are running low. Or even keep a larger unit running
continuously and sell your excess at a profit.

Assembly
The only tools needed to complete assembly of the REVENOOR five, ten, twenty-five and fifty gallon size stills are two 8”
to 10” adjustable wrenches.

How soon will I receive my still?

Full payment is due with the order of the REVENOOR 1 ½, 5, 10, 25 and 50 gallon size stills. All Revenoor stills are built
after you place your order. The 1 ½, 5, 10 and 25 gallon stills usually ship in 30 days. The continuous systems and related
equipment are made to your special order and normally take 45 days before shipping. We require a minimum 65 % deposit
on all special orders to start and the balance to be received before shipment of order unless otherwise instructed in a written
bid. On all special orders the 65 % deposit must be forfeited if the order is cancelled or not accepted. All stills are shipped
freight COD or can be picked up at our location.

Trade-Ins
If you prefer to start out with a smaller unit to get the feel of alcohol production and then wish to move up to a larger sized
unit, we will allow you full price paid on a larger unit. Of course, your trade-in must still be in good condition so it can be
resold. However, if you have purchased your still from a dealer, you will have to make arrangements for a trade-in with
them. We also have several units in stock that are trade-ins that are discounted from the original price. These trade-ins are
completely reconditioned and carry a normal one year warranty the same as a new unit. Since stock on trade-in stills
fluctuate almost daily, it will be necessary to phone or write us for availability.

Prices subject to change without notice!

We hope the information we have furnished you is helpful and we look forward to helping you to be fuel independent. Some
of our customers have purchased units from us and have put them aside for future use or for emergency purposes.

This is also a smart idea for three major reasons:

1. They beat the rapidly rising inflation factor or price increases caused from raw materials, labor, etc.
2. The U.S. Government is still issuing free permits and tax credits.
3. They have the unit when they want and need it.

Propane-Fired Stills
The propane models are supplied with a cast iron burner, heating head, adjustable regulators, pilot assembly, thermal couple
and safety shut down.

ALL PRICES ARE F.O.B. factory (unless otherwise stated.)

The following high quality accessories are included with each of the REVENOOR stills:
Free instruction manual Free “Simple Sour Mash to Simple Alcohol Fuel” book
Stainless Steel Thermometers Safety pop-off valve
Vinometer (beer Hydrometer) Hydrometer (for testing proof of alcohol)
Large plastic beaker Yeast

which is attached to the bottom (vertical) of the retort, can be plugged into any outlet. Temperature is already set
for boiling water. On the propane model, a low pressure propane burner sits under the retort and is controlled by
an adjustable gas regulator. A drain valve is also on the bottom of the cylinder for empting the water after
distillation.

Two fittings on the retort permit adding water during distillation or can be used for connection of distillate water.
The fittings are designed for “hard-piping” your water source. They can be adapted for hoses.

BIRD’S BEAK – The Bird’s Beak attaches to the top of the retort. The top of the retort has been fitted with a
food grade gasket and provides an excellent seal against steam leaks. The cone of the Bird’s Beak is attached as a
“lid” secured in place with stainless steel wingnuts. The cone is equipped with a thermometer (Fahrenheit) to
monitor the temperature. Steam from the retort travels through the Bird’s Beak on its way to the condenser.

CONDENSOR – The purpose of the condenser is to cool the steam generated in the retort, causing the steam to
revert to liquid form. The condenser requires a constant flow of cold water. Steam enters through the top of the
condenser. There are two fittings on the vertical side of the condenser, one at the top and one at the bottom. The
fittings are designed for ½ “ tubing. Cold water is introduced at the bottom fitting and exits through the top fitting.
Water can be supplied from a sink tap.
An alternative is to connect a submersible
pump, which sits in a bucket of cold water
(ice should be added to the bucket as well
as water). The water is pumped into the
bottom fitting and is returned into the
bucket from the top fitting. This allows
distillation away from a water source,
during lectures and demonstrations, in the
garage or out in the field (power source is
required)

 Why Lease?
Preserves existing Bank and Credit lines – This will not show up on your personal credit so it’s not exposed to other lenders as a
debt.
Leases are secured by the equipment on the lease, not a blanket lien on the business or all equipment they own. Great for
intangibles such as software and services.
Very little out of pocket expense – no more than first and last month’s payments – sometimes less!
Does not tie up cash or lines of credit that you may need for emergency situations, or whatever you usually use it for!
Quicker approvals and funding to the vendor than a Bank, and no financial statements required now or at any time
throughout the term of the lease. This not only means less hassle for you, but it also means there is no chance that the
lease can be “called in” if your financials start a negative trend, unlike what the bank can do on a loan.

There is no prepayment penalty. Provides a tax write-off on depreciating assets. Allows you to use your cash for items that
add value to your business.

Tax Benefits of Leasing

It Pays for business owners to know about the IRS Section 179!
IRS Section 179
Under IRS Section 179, equipment purchases, up to the amount shown below, can be expensed (deducted from taxable income) if
installed before December 31st. Finance leases qualify for this deduction in their year of inception. Any excess above the expensed
amount can be depreciated over 5 to 7 years depending on the equipment type.
The maximum amount of asset cost that can be expensed by year is:
$25,000 for 2003 BUT was increased
to $100,000 in May of 2003 for that year.
For example, if you purchase or lease a piece of equipment for $22,000 and install it in 2003, you are eligible to take a $20,000 tax
deduction in 2003. The remaining $2,000 can be depreciated over the life of the asset.

Finance Lease:
Typically, a finance lease is a full payout, non-cancelable agreement. You are responsible for maintenance, taxes and insurance. The
benefit of this lease type is that you can take advantage of IRS Section 179 and expense up to the amount allowed for the year the
equipment is installed. You may depreciate any excess on the depreciation schedule for that particular asset.
Example: The equipment is installed in 2004 and the cost is $35,000. Using IRS Section 179 and assuming a 33% tax bracket, your tax
savings would be $25,000 x .33 = $8,250 plus the depreciation value on the remainder of $10,000.

Tax Lease/True Lease:

A tax lease or true lease are leases for which the lessor retains ownership and you as the lessee may be allowed to claim the entire
amount of the monthly investment as a tax deduction. Many rental contracts qualify as a true lease.
Example: Monthly investment is $1,000. Term is 36 months. Assuming a 33% tax bracket, your monthly tax savings would be $1,000
x.33 =$333. Total savings over the term of the contract would be $11,988.
1208. Election to Expense Certain Depreciable Business Assets
An expense deduction is provided for taxpayers (other than estates, trusts or certain non-corporate lessors) who elect to treat the cost of
qualifying property, call Sec. 179 property, as an expense rather than a capital expenditure. The election, which is made on form 4562, is
to be attached to the taxpayer’s original return (including a late filed original return) or an amended return filed by the due date of the
original return (excluding extensions) for the year the property is placed in service and may not be revoked without IRS consent (94FED,
12,120). Employees may make such election on Form 2106.
For 2000, the maximum Code Sec. 179 deduction is $20,000. The $20,000 ceiling is reduced by the excess cost of qualified property
placed in service during the tax year over $200,000.
The total cost of property that may be expensed for any tax year cannot exceed the total amount of taxable income (determined after
application of the investment limitation) derived from the active conduct of any trade or business during the tax year. Cost disallowed
under this rule may be carried forward an unlimited number of years subject to the ceiling amount for each year. To qualify as Code Sec.
1245 property depreciable under Code Sec. 168 and property that is acquired by purchase for use in the active conduct of a trade or
business.
An enterprise Zoned business (Code Sec 1397B is entitled to an increased Code Sec. 179 deduction. The standard $20,000 annual
limitation is increased by the lessor of (1) $20,000, or (2) the cost of section 179 property which is qualified zone property (other than
buildings) placed in service during the tax year in one of 9 empowerment zones which may be designated during 1994 and 1995.
