Detailed Guide shows you exactly what to do
With this gear you can gather oil affordably with speed, relative ease, and minimum mess. Flip on the pump and oil is powered through, filtered to 1 micron. This equipment is not yet assembled, and require a few dollars of fittings from your local hardware store to put everything inline.
You can enjoy the benefits of this equipment for years of regular use. We have collected thousands of gallons of fuel with this setup. After trying it the hard way (gravity filtration with a sock filter) we have come to deeply appreciate the portability and power of this system while traveling the U.S. in a converted bus. Hundreds of satisfied users over the years seem to agree: the GreaseBeast is intelligent filtration. Find out all about it in the Filtration Guide.
“I have been using your Greasebeast filtering system with the 3.5 GPM pump for about one month now. The system has worked flawlessly and sure beats pouring filthy waste oil into a giant sock, spilling half of it all over my garage floor! What used to take 4 hours now takes less than 30 minutes."
"Your product is the best game in town and has been a lifesaver. I am even inspired to convert my house furnace to WVO as well as my car! Keep up the great work as I will be ordering from you once again in the near future.”
-Bob C., Cellist, Philadelphia Orchestra
"I am loving that pump! I set it up ...the Greasebeast started immediately pumping oil into my old Mercedes. WOW! I've filtered 20 gallons so far this week. It goes so much faster than those sock filters, and I don't spill oil! I'm so glad I found your product -- it's great."
-Paul T.
Filtration Canister
The plastic that composes the Filter Canister is super-durable. These are tough. After hundreds of gallons of use a wipe-down makes it appear brand new. It comes with tapped holes on the top for mounting brackets to be attached if desired. There is also a pressure release button that allows a suction vacuum to be broken.
3/4” female threading in & out
Tough Materials give these rugged value.
Pressure Release Button, inner gasket included
10” height x 5” top diameter
125* F Max Operating Temperature
125 PSI Max Operating Pressure
Vegetable Oil Pump
This transfer pump is good for use with vegetable oil, diesel, and also kerosene, motor oil, lubricants, or water. We have tested many pumps, and most burn out with veggie oil. This one is Gear-Oil, and works steadily for a long time to come!
This pump is intended to pump thick liquids such as oil, so is perfect for this application. Don't worry about blown fuses or overheats! This Fill-Rite pump will stay pumping at a steady 3.5 gallons per minute; perfect for the Veggie-Car fill up, or at-home filtration station. Operation draws a low 10 Amps from a 12V source. Features brass pump housing, and a lengthy 30-minute duty cycle. The entire pump is housed in a protective metal case with a durable portable handle, plus includes a 6 foot wire with battery clips and in inline fuse. Also attached to the pump is a cleanable mesh filter screen, and included is 13 feet of black 1/2” fluid transfer hose and 2 hose clamps. Manufacturer's Guide & 1-YR Warranty included.
Be aware that many pumps just can not do this job well. Many are full of plastic parts that melt when they are overworked by the thicker liquid. For this reason Gear Oil and Heavy Duty pumps are some of the best choices. If you want to be able to filter "on the go" choose a 12V pump which can be powered by a car battery. If you will be primarily plugging into power at home, choose a plug in version. Organic Mechanic carries 2 pumps in each category, all available in our ebay store. The model included here is the most popular model for it's reliability and affordability.
WaterBlocker
Place this filter unit inline in your fuel transfer setup to remove water. It will plug when it is full of water. Also removes particles at 15 microns and works with gasoline or diesel fuel. It makes sense to have this be the last filter for oil to pass through so that particles have already been removed and the waterblocking capability lasts longest.
Take care when collecting waste vegetable oil as it may contain water, which should not be in the fuel system of your vehicle and will not be removed by these filters alone. There are two types of water in oil: free and suspended. Free water is that which is not mixed thoroughly into the VegOil. The Goldenrod Waterblocker Filter will capture this type of water very well, and will clog when it is full - disallowing any fluids to pass. You may chose to add the Goldenrod Waterblocker, available in our ebay store, inline to your GreaseBeast. Suspended water, which occurs when water is mixed in thoroughly with the vegoil, may make its way through a waterblocker element. This oil should be avoided if you are on the go, as settling and heating must be applied to remove this type of water. Starting with good oil is your best protection against water. For a complete discussion on this topic, read the GreaseBeast Guide to Filtration.
Filters
All Filter Rods are individually sealed for protection, labeled by micron rating, and Guaranteed for quality. GreaseBeast Filter life depends on the quality of oil that you are filtering. Each lasts between 15-75 gallons; for us it usually averages about 60. Choose your VegOil well to extend their use the longest. More details on filtration can be found in the GreaseBeast Guide on our website, and filters can be found in bulk in our ebay store. 30 filters are included in this set, fifteen 1 micron and fifteen 10 micron. A micron is a thousandths of an inch. Fuel filters in most vehicles are typically 5 or 10 micron. These veg oil filters are nominally rated, so catch 95% of particles. Passing the oil through 2 filters takes care of most of this, and your onboard vegetable oil fuel system filter will catch any particles that make it past.
4 Layers of Structure = High holding capacity and long filter life
Certified by NSF, FDA, and ISO 9001 for a wide range of safe applications
Filter Wrenches
These durable tools are indispensable aids to ensuring tight seals and helping to replace filters. Two included for the canisters, one for the Goldenrod.
What do I need to get started?
At most hardware stores you can find fittings, clamps, and tephlon tape, all for $10-$20. This is very easy and straight-forward to assemble!
Where is an Oil Source?
Finding good waste vegetable oil is an art and a science. There is certainly a learning curve for this skill, but as any veggie enthusiast will tell you - research first, try it out, be persistent, and you'll be able to spot and filter good veggie like a pro! Generally Asian buffet places are golden. Read about where to look and how to ask for it in the GreaseBeast Guide, and follow us along on an oil hunt:
Converting a Vehicle to SVO?
Vegetable Oil as Fuel works best in a fully converted diesel. Find full SVO Conversion Kits for Cars, Trucks, and Semis in our ebay store.
"the Diesel engine can be fed vegetable oils” which
“may become in the course of time as important as petroleum"
-Rudolf Diesel, Diesel Engine Inventor, 1911
Handling Oil?
Vegetable Oil can be very sticky on any surface it comes in contact with. It will stain clothing and fabric, as well as garages, driveways, and wood. Be aware of this when filtering as minor precautions can save you alot of mess. For instance, wear gloves, wait for drips to fall before moving hoses, and put down cardboard or a plastic sheet around an area that you use to filter - or choose an area that is okay to get messy, or can be power-washed to be cleaned. Throwing on a jumpsuit or wearing clothes that can get dirty is a good precaution. Read more in the GreaseBeast Guide.
