So what I'm understanding here is that the people stocking up on toilet paper were actually geniuses?

They can convert the TP to hand sanitizer?!

so for this video I'm gonna be doing exactly what the title says and I'm gonna be turning toilet paper into drinkable alcohol I don't know exactly where this idea came from but about six months ago I became convinced that this conversion was possible this is because toilet paper and well pretty much all paper is made almost entirely of cellulose cellulose naturally occurs in almost all plants and we use it to make everything from cotton clothing to paper or cardboard would have always found interesting though is that at the core of it it's just a chain of simple glucose sugar molecules sugar is something that we usually associate with food but in cellulose the glucose units have been strung together in a very specific way which gives it completely different properties this is always blowing my mind because it means that our clothing and almost all paper is basically made out of sugar and wood is also about 50% cellulose so a lot of our houses are also kind of made out of sugar for the most part though cellulose is very resistant to degradation and the glucose is mostly inaccessible however the fact that some animals at microbes have developed ways to break it back down into glucose told me that there had to be a way that I could do it based on this my dream was to start with a cellulose source like toilet paper and then somehow chop it up to make a solution of glucose into that I could then throw in some Brewers ease to turn it into alcohol and then I could distill it to make some weird toilet paper moonshine the biggest challenge of this project was of course the first part which was breaking down the cellulose to do this there were two main ways either chemically or enzymatically and both of them had their own pros and cons the chemical method was more efficient but it involved using a lot of acid which would be hard to separate from the sugar after it was done I would have most likely ended up having to neutralize all the acid and it figured that this would both be wasteful and kind of messy the enzyme method on the other hand appeared to be less efficient and even take longer but from what I could tell it was a lot cleaner and much easier to set up after thinking about it for a good while I felt that I liked the enzymatic way better so the next thing that I had to do was buy some enzyme the enzyme that I need to break down the cellulose was called cellulase and the cheapest source of it that I could find was from a company called the AL chemists pantry they were a Brewing Company and was all supposed to be food grade stuff so it was almost perfect and I bought a bag of it it also clearly stated that all the sillies came from east and not bacteria and I'll explain why this was important later on but anyway the enzyme was being shipped from Europe and it was gonna take a few weeks to arrive so while it was waiting for it I figured that it was a good time to actually put together the process that I was going to be doing it honestly took me a while to figure it all out but after a bunch of research I eventually came up with something that was relatively simple to do it all he needed was some basic equipment and a few easy-to-get chemicals when the enzyme eventually arrived I considered doing some small-scale tests to verify that what I came up with worked but it was such a simple process that I decided to just wing it and go all in if it ended up working it would save me a lot of time and I figured that at worst out of a bunch of sad failure footage that could be used for something so now to get started the first thing that I needed was some toilet paper I'm pretty sure that almost any brand would have worked but I specifically went with the one with the fluffy kittens on it toilet paper is one of the least densely packed forms of paper which means that it has a lot of potential surface area for enzymes to attack it however this doesn't necessarily mean that it's easier for enzymes to break it down at the molecular level the cellulose fibers are still tightly packed together and it's hard for cellulase to do anything if I just directly mix the enzyme with the toilet paper not very much would happen and it would probably make little to no sugar to fix this problem though it wasn't very hard and I just had to pretreat the cellulose with a dilute base so I got it a large pot and into it I added three litres of distilled water followed by 60 grams of sodium hydroxide drain cleaner this would give me roughly a 2% base solution and I stirred it until everything dissolved then I slowly added one entire roll and as you would expect with toilet paper it quickly started soaking it up after about 10 seconds it was completely full of water and I tried to break it up as much as I could I also pulled out the cardboard tube from the center because I wanted to keep this purely just toilet paper I was eventually left with a nice and mushy toilet paper stew and the next thing to do was to basically cook it to do this I just put it onto a cheap Ikea induction heater and I cranked up the power it all slowly heated up and when it eventually got to a boil I turned down the power to keep it at a light simmer I tried stirring it often to prevent it from splashing but it didn't really seem to help it apparently just loves splattering boiling hot water everywhere and I found that putting on the lid was absolutely necessary the goal here was to try to keep it under control and to have it simmer for about an hour and a half under these conditions the cellulose fibers were being attacked by the base and getting partially degraded this caused a lot of the bonds between the fibers to be broken which allowed them to separate and become less densely packed it was also chopping up the cellulose fibres into smaller pieces and their average length was going down a lot this created more shorter length fibers and this was important because it meant that there were more open ends the cellulose enzyme can only degrade the fiber from the end and by making more potential areas of attack it should make it go a lot faster in summary though the major effect of this base treatment was that it was separating the fibers and chopping them up by the time it was done the whole thing had turned yellow and it had a very distinct smell to it I honestly thought that it was going to be horrible but it was surprisingly pleasant I'm not exactly sure how to describe it but it was kind of sweet and woody I took it off the heater and I let it cool for about 30 minutes and when it wasn't crazy hot anymore I filtered off all the paper what I was left with in the strainer looked a lot like some bad mashed potatoes in the container below it was all the water and without the paper it had a much darker orange brown color what I had to do now was wash it with a lot of distilled water to get rid of the base and as much of the color as possible I tried doing this a couple times directly in the strainer but it just wasn't very efficient and most of the paper barely got washed so what I did instead was clean the pot from before and dump everything back into it in here I was able to add a lot more water and I was able to thoroughly mix around the paper to make sure that it all got washed this was then poured back into the strainer and after doing it just once it was already looking pretty good I ended up doing this one more time and then I just did several crappier washes directly in the strainer when I eventually felt that it was good enough I tried squeezing out as much of the water as I could at this point though the container was quite full with water already and it was hitting the bottom of the strainer so I just continued doing it over the pot and this was what I was eventually left with this pre treated paper was now good to go but it wasn't quite ready to get things started and I still had to make the enzyme solution to do this I first had to make an enzyme concentrate by adding 90 grams of the enzyme powder that I got earlier and then bringing it up to about 400 mils using distilled water I then stirred it around but a lot of it didn't want to dissolve because most of this enzyme powder was just filler it's pretty common for enzymes to be dispersed on inert fillers and in this case the fillers were cornstarch and maltodextrin the cellulose enzyme itself and most of the malted dextran dissolved into the water but the cornstarch was pretty much insoluble I was planning this project I was a bit concerned because both cornstarch and maltodextrin are also glucose based sugars I was worried that they might also end up getting broken down into glucose and turned into ethanol but this actually isn't an issue they don't get attacked by the cellulase and the yeast and the fermentation step that we'll be doing later aren't able to break them down either I even confirmed this by doing a separate control rod but I'll talk about that later in the video because these fillers were a nerd I could have just directly used this mixture as it was but I wanted to clean it up a bit and to get rid of the cornstarch filter and cornstarch though is almost always a nightmare and instead I just covered the top and I let it sit in my fridge overnight by the next morning it had pretty much all separated and this enzyme concentrate was now good to go to make the actual enzyme solution though I had to dilute this concentrate in something known as a buffer solution a buffer solution is something that's commonly used when working with enzymes and it helps keep the pH at a specific level this is important because enzymes are very sensitive to pH and they work most efficiently in a certain range the cellulose that I had was from yeast and the optimal pH for it was 5 so that was what I had to make the buffer at there were many different chemicals that can be used to make a buffer but a very easy and common method is to use citric acid and sodium citrate both of these are common food additives and I was able to easily find them at a local store I also found a calculator for making this buffer online and all I had to do was plug in the pH that I wanted the concentration and the total volume that I was going for based on my research a total of 3 litres seemed ideal with a pH of 5 and a molarity of 0.05 after plugging this in it told me to use about 25 grams of the sodium citrate and 12.2 grams of the citric acid so into a large mason jar I added 2 point 6 litres of distilled water followed by the citric acid and the sodium citrate I stirred it around until it all dissolved and into this I poured the enzyme concentrate from before which brought it up to three litres I tried to leave as much of the cornstarch as I could in the beaker but some of it was still able to make it in now after all this the enzyme solution was finally ready and all I had to do was at the toilet paper when it was all in there I mix it around as thoroughly as I could and I loosely covered the table I then took this whole thing and I put it into an oven that was said just slightly above 50 C this was the optimal temperature that this cellulose worked at and I had to leave it in there for two days over this time the enzymes should be attacking the cellulose and slowly turning it into glucose when it comes to cellulase though it usually isn't just one enzyme doing everything and it's actually a group of a few different ones all working together the first one is endo cellulase and it breaks the bonds between the fibers and within the fibers themselves by pre-treating the paper with a base though a lot of these bonds were already broken and the ones that remained were a lot easier to access the liberated fibers were then attacked by the EXO cellulase which degrades them from their ends so what it does is bind to the end and travel along the fiber and chop off groups of 2 or 4 glucose units these much smaller sugar units are then finally broken down into glucose by another enzyme called cell o by A's when I checked on it the next day the paper had all floated to the top I then stirred it and compared to before it was definitely a lot thinner and fluffy the cellulase had clearly done something to it and so far it was looking a lot better than I expected I checked on it again about half an hour later and it had separated where most of it stayed floating the stuff at the top was slowly falling down though and over the course of the day most of it ended up at the bottom I left it until the next day until it hit the 48 hour mark and this was what I had there was still a bunch of stuff left over but it didn't at all resemble the toilet paper that I started with it was done at this point so I took it out of the oven but before moving on I had to let it cool down it was currently somewhere just above 50 C but I needed it to be closer to 35 this was gonna take about an hour though and in the meantime I poked around at it a bit I was honestly really impressed with how fine and fluffy it was and like I said before I really didn't expect it to work this well I'm really not sure exactly how much paper was still left here but a feeling was probably around 10 to 20 percent of what I started with however that's almost just entirely speculation on my part and not really based on much when it eventually got to 35 C it was time to add the yeast when it comes to fermenting sugar to make alcohol there were a lot of different yeast strains to choose from and each of them have their own pros and cons however in my case I wasn't doing anything very fancy so I just went with common brewers yeast which can tolerate many conditions these conditions though at least in terms of pH were actually kind of ideal as I mentioned earlier the cellulose that I was using originally came from yeast so the pH was already tuned to be optimal for yeast this was why I didn't want to use a bacterial cellulase because then I would have had to readjust the pH the yeast in the packet was dehydrated and right now they were all getting rehydrated and coming back to life I then snapped on the plastic adapter that the jar came with followed by the lid that I had modified I'd cut a hole in it to fit a stopper in an airlock so that it could prevent air from getting in and to also help track the progress of the fermentation initially not much appear to be happening but then very quickly a lot of yeast flakes started floating to the top they were being carried by the co2 gas that they were producing which gave them some buoyancy when they got to the top though and released the co2 they would then sink back down this cycle continued for a while but it didn't last forever because the yeast were slowly being dispersed into the water by the next day it was just a murky looking mixture and there were no pieces floating around anymore it was also generating a lot of co2 which was a very good sign because it told me that the yeast were happily eating away at sugar how much sugar was actually there though I had no idea but it was definitely working at least to some degree I then looked at the airlock and it was letting a bubble out about every 30 seconds which was a pretty decent rate what I had to do now was basically nothing and I just had to wait until it completely stopped bubbling when this eventually happens it would mean that there was little to no sugar left and I figured it would take about two weeks I didn't just leave it where it was though and I put it in the oven that I used before and I kept it just above 30 see this was about a week later and the amount of paper at the bottom had gone down quite a bit this was because I had never deactivated the cellulase and it was still slowly attacking the cellulose it wasn't as efficient because it was around 30 C instead of above 50 but it was still apparently working in terms of bubbling it was much slower than before but it was still clearly going on so I put it back in the oven and I waited another week so I came back a week later and when I checked on it the airlock wasn't moving at all and I couldn't see any bubbling going on at the bottom there was still some white stuff but it wasn't sure if this was leftover paper or just a bunch of yeast at this point I considered it done and now the next thing that I had to do was distill it to get out the ethanol I didn't want to include all that questionable stuff at the bottom though so I poured everything into another container the bit that was still there was then dumped into a coffee filter this filtration was really slow and it wasn't really worth waiting for it to finish the liquid that did eventually pass through though would all be added back to the main batch but anyway with all that done I could start setting up the distillation when most people distill alcohol they use a large and specialized setup for it which is the most efficient thing to do however I just decided to do it in glassware because my scale was relatively small and I thought that it would look nicer almost all my glassware had been used before so to keep this food safe I bought a fresh set from ebay for about fifty five dollars Canadian the biggest flask that came with though was only one liter so I'd have to distill it in multiple batches to get things started I added a stir bar and then I poured in the alcohol solution in general it's best not to go much over the halfway point but I want to get this done in the fuze batch as possible so I ended up pushing it a bit above the flask have put together the rest of the setup and to do this I used a fractional column a thermometer a condenser and a beaker I then turned on my water circulator and I got some cold water flowing through the condenser at this point it was good to go so under the flask I added a heating mantle and I turned on the heating and stirring as it warmed up it started bubbling a lot but it wasn't boiling and it was mostly just co2 gas getting kicked out of solution the colour also shifted to being much whiter and I think this was caused by yeast coming out of suspension some frothing started happening and it didn't look like it wanted to disappear and this was gonna be a problem so I turned on the heating to try to prevent a disaster but it was a bit too late the foam had already started climbing the column and it wasn't really slowing down it was able to make its way all the way to the top of the column and then suddenly it started actually boiling and it launched a bunch of liquid through the entire setup this was a bit of a pain but it wasn't the end of the world it just meant that it was gonna take a bit longer because they now had to recycle everything here in the next batch and also I had to be a bit more careful with the heating when it eventually looked like it was under control I covered the flask in the column with some aluminum foil this helps insulate them and it makes it easier for the vapor to climb the column and make it to the condenser I also swapped a beaker but the stuff coming over was still pretty murky because it was picking up all the solid junk that was carried up the column before this Ron was definitely turning out to be way messier than I expected I was hoping that this stuff would be nice and clear but that obviously wasn't the case and I was gonna have to recycle this as well it wasn't a total loss or anything though because the alcohol coming over was definitely a lot more concentrated than it started at it just didn't look very nice however it was still mostly just water and it had other volatile stuff mixed in as well to really clean it up and to properly concentrated I'd have to do a second or maybe even a third distillation the reason that the stuff coming over was mostly water was because I was only starting with a very low concentration of ethanol in my fermentation mixture it was probably at most something like 2% ethanol and that meant that it was 98% water at the very beginning the stuff coming over was probably close to 50 or 60 percent ethanol but after that it quickly and continuously dropped this happened because as the ethanol was boiled off that 2% concentration was constantly decreasing and the relative amount of water was constantly increasing this caused more and more water vapor to be let off with the ethanol and the stuff that I was receiving eventually became almost entirely water this meant that I couldn't really trust the thermometer because the temperature was heavily skewed to the boiling point of water however even though it was well above the boiling point of ethanol which is around 78 C there was still some ethanol coming over once it was up at around 98 usually temperature is the best thing to go by but because I couldn't use it here I had to go with the more traditional way so to know how close it was to being done I just occasionally tasted what was coming over and tried to tell if there was any ethanol in it as I said before though along with the water and ethanol there's other volatile stuff coming over fit which doesn't really make it taste very good it wasn't as bad as I expected it would be but I did end up spitting out most of what I tried at some point I couldn't taste any more ethanol in it and then I continued collecting it for several more minutes after this I considered it done and pretty much all of the ethanol should have been extracted everything left in the boiling flask was just waste and after letting it cool for a bit I poured it down the drain this was one of the rare times where it's okay for me to do this because unlike a lot of the chemistry that I often do there was nothing toxic or dangerous in this this was everything that I'd collected which was not very pretty to say the least and like I said before was just gonna be recycled so I reattached the now empty flask and I poured them in I then added more of the other stuff and I set it all up again this time I was super careful with the heating and there wasn't a disaster this time because it was gonna be a lot slower I expected the ethanol coming over to be more concentrated and I started with just a small vial however after a bit I realized that I was gonna be collecting a lot more than this and I swapped it out for a mason jar then just like the other run I did it until a taste test told me that there wasn't any more alcohol coming over and when it was done I emptied the flask filled it with fresh stuff and just kept it going it was all going really well all the way up to the last batch and everything that I had was nice and clear however for some reason and of course decided to go crazy right when it was close to the end and it spit over a bunch of that white junk this wasn't a huge deal though because I planned to do a second distillation anyway but it was still kind of sad this whole distillation process was way slower than I expected and it took me a few days to finish at this point though it was finally done so I took away the mason jar and I dumped out all the stuff in the flask what I had now was less than 10% of the volume that I started with so it was way more concentrated than before as a quick test mostly just for fun I decided to try lighting it on fire however it still wasn't concentrated enough to ignite and not very much happened I honestly wasn't very surprised by this though and now to actually find out its concentration I poured it all into a grad cylinder I then dropped in a hydrometer which will float at different heights depending on the density of the liquid when there's more ethanol the density will be lower and this meter will be able to sink deeper in this case though it didn't go very deep at all and it told me that the concentration was around 20% this was way higher than I ever imagined getting from this project and 250 mils of 20% alcohol really isn't bad at all I was hoping to maybe get 5 or 10 mils of pure alcohol but based on this it's telling me that there's more like 50 but anyway at this point if all I was looking for was to drink some dirty toilet paper wine I could have stopped here however based on the taste test that I had to do this wouldn't be a very pleasant experience to make it even remotely tolerable I had to distill it again to get rid of all that solid junk and to purify it besides ethanol there were a lot of other volatile and bad tasting things in there when it was super dilute it was very difficult to get rid of them but now with another distillation I should be able to get rid of almost all of them this time I had a lot less liquid so I could do it in a smaller flask and all in one batch I also completely cleaned and scrubbed the rest of the setup to make sure that it was as clean as possible I then set it up like before but this time the heating mantle was a bit oversized this was okay though and it would just make the heating a bit less efficient however with most of the yeast and most of the other stuff gone now there shouldn't be a problem with bubbling or foaming at this point I was just about to get things started but then I realised that I totally forgot the stir bar so I just quickly popped it open again and dropped one in and then I turned on the heating and stirring after this I covered everything with foil and I waited for stuff to start coming over one major difference between this distillation and the last one was that there was way less water so it could actually pay attention to the temperature the first drop showed up at around 70 C and then it slowly rose to 79 C we're remained constant this initial amount was called before shot and it contained almost entirely low boiling point side products in this section if it were present most of the methanol would come over but I don't think that there was any here this is because methanol is only produced when certain foods are fermented that contains sugars called pectins I started with nearly pure cellulose though so there was no real reason for any of it to be made as I kept collecting it at 79 CE it slowly got into the portion called the heads which was mostly ethanol but it still had some other stuff in it I kept catching it in the same vial as the for shot for a bit and then I swapped it to a beaker to get the rest as more chemo for it slowly moved to the section called the hearts which was almost pure ethanol along with the ethanol though usually comes some other things which actually taste good and it makes this portion the most valuable I was tracking everything again by occasionally tasting it and at this point it was quite pure and probably around 85% like before though there was still a lot of water in the boiling flask and the amount of ethanol that was in it was constantly decreasing so the stuff that I was collecting slowly got less concentrated and the temperature also slowly increased as this happened higher boiling points I products were being carried over with the ethanol and it was changing the taste this portion is near the end of the distillation and it's commonly known as the tails however I didn't ferment anything complex like fruit so for this section there weren't many side products that could come over to me the only thing that I noticed was that it was getting more dilute and maybe a bit bitter when making moonshine distillers usually don't collect everything in one container and they try to separate the different sections both the heads and the tails contain a lot of ethanol but they often have a bunch of weird stuff mixed in so they're often just included in future runs the hearts like I said before are the most valuable and they contain the best tasting portion knowing exactly when to start collecting the hearts and when to stop is one of the most important things when it comes to making a good quality product I of course wasn't making a typical moonshine though and I felt that my ethanol was a bit too precious to discard any of it this was why I just chose to collect everything in one beaker also like I said before I was starting with a relatively pure sugar source so there weren't that many side products that could be made when it got to around 80 mils the temperature was about 99 C and I didn't taste ethanol anymore so I considered it donnnnneee this was everything those left in the boiling flask and like all the other runs I waited for it to cool and then I got rid of it the final result of this was a team ELLs of an unknown concentration and this little vial of the four shot I'm not sure how to describe it but the four shot really didn't smell very good and I just threw it away now for the good part I wanted to know how concentrated it was instead of just doing it with a hydrometer though I again tried lighting it on fire this time it ignited really easily and it burned with that blue flame that's typical of ethanol I was really happy that this worked but it didn't really tell me much of anything about what the concentration actually was to get an accurate number again I just had to use a hydrometer the volume here was really low though and my current setup couldn't do it so I had to buy a smaller one however at first this one also looked like it was still too big when I looked at the bottom of it much closer though I saw that it was actually floating so the reading on here should be fine and it told me that it was about 64% this was more or less what I was expecting to get and I felt that 64% was decent for a moonshine and I didn't have to distill it again so at this point it was pretty much done and I poured it all into a little jar and I labeled it appropriately at 64% and about 78 mils this was equivalent to 50 mils of pure ethanol and like I said before it was way more than I ever expected I started with a hundred grams of toilet paper and assuming that a hundred percent of that mass was turned into glucose the maximum yield was about 60 mils this meant that this whole process was 83% efficient which to me was suspiciously good this got me worried that may be the multi dextran or the cornstarch that was added along with the enzyme was breaking down as well theoretically cellulous doesn't attack either of these sugars and yeast can't ferment them but I had to make sure so I ran a control by repeating the exact same process and I just didn't include any toilet paper when I distilled it all I did actually get some ethanol and my final yield was 20 mils of 20% this meant that there were five mils of pure ethanol and this likely came from the moth or dextran which can sometimes have a small amount of fermentable sugar in it so it was contributing some ethanol but pretty much all of it was still from the toilet paper if five mils were coming from the enzyme though than my real yield was 45 mils and not 50 and my actual efficiency was about 75% in my opinion this was still shockingly good and even though I did everything myself it's still kind of hard to believe that it all came from toilet paper but anyway now that I had actually made it the only thing left to do was to see how it tasted while I was distilling it I individually tasted each section but now that it was all combined into one I was really curious to know what it was like okay so to get started I'm just gonna smell it and I mean there's nothing gross about it but also nothing really very special it kind of smells like vodka except with a bit of extra maybe not good other stuff in there which again as I mentioned before probably comes from either the heads or the tails but it's not bad overall and I guess I'll just taste it now I mean it's really sure because it's 64% but doesn't taste very bad it's a little bit bitter which I kind of got when I was tasting the tails when I was making it other maddest I don't know I'm honestly not the best person to really review it because I don't drink alcohol often and I honestly don't really like the taste of alcohol but compared to vodkas and other stuff I've had in the past this wasn't that much worse there was again that a little bit of a bitter taste and maybe some off taste that came from the heads but besides that I mean it wasn't too bad if I were just served it I would think that it's just generic alcohol which I hate anyway I'm not gonna add that part but anyway this about brings me to the end of this project when I first came up with the idea for this it was mostly just a funny concept and I had no idea that it was actually gonna work this well I was honestly hoping for maybe 5 mils and it's probably the first time ever that a project has turned out this much better than I expected also even though I'm really not a fan of alcohol the flavor wasn't bad and overall I'm still shocked at how well it all turned out for all the alcohol that I still have left over I would have loved to do a giveaway but I doubt that it would be legal so I'm just gonna be keeping it as a souvenir and maybe I'll try to use it in a future video it took me a lot longer than I expected to put this all together so my video schedule is a bit weird now but I do plan to get another one out around mid-december I don't want to give any details of what its gonna be about but this next one is also a funny concept that I'd been working on for a while it's also kind of food based too so there'll be some more tasting going on before I go though I want to quickly mention team trees which I'm sure a lot of you guys have already heard about at this point for those that haven't though it's a tree planting initiative that was started by mr. beast and Mark Rober it's a massive YouTube collaboration and every dollar that's donated will plant one tree somewhere around the world and the goal is to get to 20 million at the time of editing this they're less than 5 million away and if you want to help you can do this by either donating or picking up some of their merch and just as one last thing I don't mention my other social media here very often but I am also on Twitter and Instagram on both of these I often post content that never makes it to youtube and sometimes I also share some high-quality stuff like this as usual a big things goes out to all my supporters on patreon everyone who supports me can see my videos at least 24 hours before I post them to YouTube also everyone on patreon can directly message me and if you support me with $5 or more you'll get your name at the end like you see here [Music]
