Drink Cold Beer to Lose Weight
It takes energy to warm up your cold beer and that helps increase your metabloism to digest the calories consumed. Find out how much with this spreadsheet.
Snow Weight-Area-Volume Calculator
Find out how what the snow on your roof, in your neighborhood, in your state weighs. Find out how much energy it takes to make or melt that snow and what size of an explosion it would take to melt the snow.
Exothermic Reaction from Blending
Blending Alcohol and Water results in an exothermic reaction resulting in a rise in temperature of the blended components. See just how much energy is released with this tool.
Pressure on Still Lid or Vessel in General.
Even a littel bit of pressure adds up to allot of pounds per square inch. Proper distillations are done at low pressure anyway so one should never really see more than 2-4 pounds of pressure on your still.
Pearson's Square
This application will allow the user to increase the strength of a blend of alcohol by a specified amount. Used in making Port with wine and Brandy. Does not account for the shrinkage in volume as a result of blending but is roughly accurate. The instructions are by Matt Mathews and his version of the program is at the North Texas Winemakers Guild site. http://www.northtexaswinemakers.org/index.html.
Gravity and Altitude Spreadsheet
This spreadsheet helps distillers measure the effects of gravity with respect to altitude when shipping bulk quantities from one altitude to another. Demonstrates the effects on exise tax payable from such activities.
Measuring Refrigeration Power
Distillers can use this table to calculate refrigeration from tons to British Thermal Units (BTUs). This tool is a practical method for measuring the power needed for distillery operations.
Celsius to Fahrenheit Converter
This conversion tool offers distillers a handy way to convert celsius to fahrenheit in some of the most frequently used temperature ranges. It has a table as well as mathamatical converters for individual inputs.
Convert Temperatures and Weights
Use this handy converter to change metric measurements into English ones and vice versa.
Watts to Power Body & Brain per Hour
This spreadsheet demonstrates how much energy it takes to power our meatbolism.
Food Energy - Calories to BTU's & Watts
This is a more general food energy spreadsheet. It shows energy use on a daily basis based on calorie intake.
Space Heater Energy Costs
This table is a simple tool for calculating the energy costs associated with the operation of space heaters.
