- ubernoggin, on 05/09/2008, -1/+109What do you mean, "leftover" alcoholic drinks? Waste not!
- bendiggn, on 05/09/2008, -0/+66What are these "leftover" alcoholic drinks you speak of?
- aliengoods, on 05/09/2008, -0/+34Any keg party veteran knows if there's still beer in the morning you keep drinking.
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -1/+34They tried this in Back to the Future 3. As I remember they did not have much success. Also Locomotives are badass...and we also don't say "locomotive" nearly enough anymore.
- lukas88, on 05/09/2008, -0/+23It is like saying "leftover candy bars" or "leftover lines of cocaine"
- DeskFlyer, on 05/09/2008, -0/+22That's alcohol abuse.
- jboitnott, on 05/09/2008, -1/+21I stand totally corrected. I don't know what came over me. :-)

Turn Your Leftover Alcoholic Drinks
My what? - diggface5000, on 05/09/2008, -0/+11i will turn your leftover alcoholic drinks into humorous anecdotes
- HaloZero, on 05/09/2008, -2/+12Current price of sugar is $2/gallon according to the site. Ethanol usage increases + protectionist sugar industry in the US == Expensive sugar! Sugar is a bitch to make too.
Don't fall for the bio fuels hype. - radarplane, on 05/09/2008, -1/+11Can you drink it before it's been opened?
- TeasasTips, on 05/09/2008, -0/+8there's never anything left over
- MrGold79, on 05/09/2008, -3/+10hear that kids- drink and drive
- Frure, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7`It can extract the sugar from alcoholic beverages and turn it to ethanol'. ... So it turns alcohol into alcohol.
For my next trick I will turn this cup of rain juice into DRINKING WATER - carterbaldwin, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7Vodka goes bad if you don't drink it after it's been opened.
- BassJunkie, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7I'll drink to that :-P
- Heavypettingzoo, on 05/09/2008, -1/+61. Host party
2. Collect wounded soldiers (half drunk left-overs)
3. Bring to machine
4. Profit! - Zyk0tiK, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5Why would you not drink it after it's been opened?
- jessjesscali, on 05/09/2008, -2/+6Hey krc1 --- get a life. And isn't that the way people find out about stuff -- by using available resources to spread the news?!
- inactive, on 08/28/2008, -0/+4this just converts sugar to ethanol…
it only mentions alcohol once…
i got worried for a second there… - schroeder, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4Awful lot of speculation you've got going on there. If people like the story they'll digg it regardless the source. Is there another story about making your own ethanol floating around on digg right now?
- dvdcpu, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4:-)
- Pixelante, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4You can if your determination is strong and pure enough, comrade.
- lester1024, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4They also had a Mr. Fusion which pwns everything.
- Ibox, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3You hang out with loser's...
- masterm1nd, on 05/09/2008, -2/+5What's a leftover alcoholic drink?
- eyepatch100, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Commie.
- doorwayboy, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4Huh, and all this time I've just been turning my alcohol into piss.
- fluffythekitten, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3...and remember: it's also bad luck not to open a bottle of vodka once you've seen it!
- ChinezePanda, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3So wait a sec.. the machine costs 10,000 dollars...
and fuel.. to be turned into ethanol.. costs anywhere between 2 and 2.40?
Does noone see the problem in this logic. - Thomaschaaf, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3I would get it for the community :)
If there are 25 houses every one would pay just around 400 bucks!
http://video.nbc11.com/player/?id=249110 is the video to it - IAmTheGuy, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Don't worry. I caught the AD reference.
- jboitnott, on 05/09/2008, -4/+6Now now. Any keg party veteran knows you sometimes have up to half a keg left the morning after that no one finished drinking. This seems perfect for that. Not that I have any experience in that sort of thing mind you. Just a thought. :--)
- magusg, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2What does that even mean?
- carterbaldwin, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Thank you! I'm glad someone did.
- HayString, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2What about just using it to make ethanol to drink?
- Spanktacular, on 05/09/2008, -2/+4Yet another nbc11 story. I'm sick of the gaming.
- gnimsh, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Wait, what, ethanol with no corn? Its almost like we could solve a second crisis of some kind with this as well...
- Whackly, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Expensive sugar will be good for fat America. Also, just because we haven't devised a perfect system doesn't mean we should give up on the developement of biofuels. No need to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
- lazyslacker, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2So.... Unless I'm not reading this right... This is basically a product to take all the guesswork out of making moonshine. $2 gets you a gallon of pure ethanol which you can then either feed to your car or yourself. The only problem is that initial investment. $10,000 is quite a bit more than what it costs to make a still.
- danmanx, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2So if we all had distilleries and such to make ethanol, there would be no fuel crisis?
My god!
Rednecks win! Rednecks win! - ablacksunrise, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1I already do turn them into fuel.... rocket fuel!
- DaBee, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1As a brewer, I spend all my time making this stuff to begin with. I use fuel to do it.
- rivalius13, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1I'll drink to most things.
- mrfish, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Hint: If you talk about something you don't know anything about, wikipedia it first http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skunked_beer#Lightstr ...
- doctechnical, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1If you want that high a proof, yes, but perhaps what this is delivering is just 15% ABV. The next question would be what's the othet 85% made of?
- inactive, on 05/17/2008, -0/+1a gallon of alcohol is a lot more expensive than a gallon of gas...even these days.
buried for being illogical. - gregdbowen, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Alcohol Abuse!
- akh4x0r, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1_ur_ doin it wrong
