3/30/2022 From introduction to fuel storage 0 minutes to 00:12:44 How I introduced my new producer. How did she end up going from California to Salt Lake? How did Val Westover get in to homeopathic remedies, Essential Oils, to eventually owning Butter Fly Express? 00:12:44 to 00:23:21 What is the best way to store fuel? Different fuels, main used is gasoline, today’s gasoline does not store like the lead did. The Ethanol settles out and a burst can destroy your carbonator system unless it’s made to use. Hard on lawn mowers, weed eaters. Eth 3 gas you can store and will be marked as such. Put a good fuel stabilizer. Better for small motors. Diesel stores better, especially underground. Problem, have to vent tank. Power service is a good stabilizer. Propane is the king, stays the same because it’s under pressure. A propane generator will keep for a good 6 months. And very dependable. We talked about this off the podcast. Do not want ethanol because it settles out. No ethanol gas in lawn mower, good fuel stabilizers. Diesel store better, especially if it was underground. If generator, best way to go is propane because it lasts longer. Store gas for about 6 months How do you buy fuel to store it? Val - go to a truck stop, some Mavericks, Propane Generators from 00:23:21 to 00:31:46. Can you get one big enough to power your whole house and how would you hook it up? Val - be careful about Chinese. Honda, Colman, Coleman, NorthStar, Caterpillar, Onan, if it has a name you can’t pronounce, don’t buy it. how are you going to use it? What’s your peak time? Are you going to use it 24/7? Can have it set up to switch from power company to generator and it can be automatic. Depends on what the purpose is. Will have to decide and research. If you’re going to power your whole house, then need more engineering. Have a separate breaker box. 00:31:46 to 00:41:22 How do you build your own solar generator? Several kits, Lyon, Point Zero; they have lithium ion for batteries. How good would a solar generator work in the winters here in Montana? Here in Montana, it gets into the negatives. Can you get batteries that can store solar power that would connect to the generator? Val – good battery in car will still start, same concept. Could put an insulated box and store it. Solar panels face the sun and the panels are good, will last about 3 hours unless you turn the panels toward the sun, then you can get about 5 hours. 00:41:22 to 00:53:37 Herbs oils and water filters recommended for emergency. diet has probably changed, burnt food, stomach issues, food poisoning; keep the drain open, keep kidney working. Mallow helps. They have an herb kit. Kidney/Bladder kit. Don’t seem to have as much problem with bowels if kidney is working. Keep something to stay hydrated; salt solution to give to a small child to keep hydrated. Rosemary and small enema, maybe garlic. Essential oils Val Lavender for burns, spearmint in drop of water for tooth infection, yarrow for cuts and hormonal for females will help with cramping. Just a little bit, maybe put on temples. Arnica Montana, plasmic, water purifiers Val - Berkey filter, can duplicate it, unburnt wood, make charcoal off the wood, put it in a sock and run the water through it and it will filter the water. 00:53:37 to 01:03 recommend to put in a 72-hour kit; Kevin says a regular AM/FM radio. His favorite pocket and portable radios are, C Crane radio. Val likes 2-way CB radios. He also likes small ham radios. Freeze-dry food; Kevin mentioned that he would like to have a month or so to prepare his favorite meals and freeze dry them for either food storage or a 72-hour kit. Val - prefers to buy the individual pieces and mix up own thing. Soak old beans in distilled water and it will soften them up and use them. 01:03 to the end of the podcast. wooden/pellet stoves Val wood stoves are messy, pellets are a lot cleaner and possible to cook on one.
