Title: Full bio processor set up and stuff - free to a good home.
Post by: Mr Tickle on July 30, 2024, 09:10:29 AM: IT’s the end of the line for me, I’ll be processing my last 200l of oil next week and then I’m finishing.
Partly because I’m knocking down my garage because I’m building a bigger one, partly because I have had an electric car for the last 2 years (which is amazing BTW costs £4.40 to charge and does 280 miles which is way cheaper than bio) and I have only done about 4000 miles per year in the XC90, and partly because I’m getting older and need an easier life.

I started making the Bio in 2012 and I’m guessing I’ve driven 200k miles on it since. Did it save me money – yes did I enjoy making it – sometimes, did it make everything in the garage sticky – definitely lol.
Once I’ve used up the 1000l of bio stored I’ll sell the diesel car and probably get a 2nd cheap electric car too, it's the way its going for all of us eventually whether we like it or not.

Anyways this will leave me with plant machinery and stuff.

I’m willing to give it all away for free to whoever comes and collects it ALL.
It a paddy goat industries Twin tub 150 that makes 200 litres per batch. I have adapted it so that it is pumped and is automated no need to turn the manual paddle at all. It has 2 x tam 120 lots of 1” pipe work valves filters auto filler fuel nozzle. There are 2 x ibc if wanted load of tubs some potassium and a plastic conical tank side tank and of course the obligatory box of crap like filters and fitting and misc.
Let me know if you are interested or I’ll weigh it all in for scrap – located south Wales.

Post by: Mr Tickle on August 19, 2024, 09:15:30 AM: I have now processed my final batch of bio :(
Next weekend I will be removing all bio related equipment.
If anyone wants it come and get it all c'est gratuis

If no one is interested Its a waste but I will weigh it all in as scrap (my son says we should keep it for the coming zombie apocalypse lol!)

Farewell Fellow Veggers nothing lasts forever!

Post by: Keef on November 09, 2024, 07:22:44 PM: I'd be inclined to post on the Facebook bio group or eBay.
There are very few people on this forum these days and most are well sorted equipment wise.
It'd be a real shame to see it go to scrap.
