Minecraft - Full Automatic Ethanol Farm using Sugar Cane
Hello guys!
This is a full automatic farm that produces both ethanol and sugar cane - it uses the sugar cane for ethanol. The sugar-cane automatic farm is from GreenGuitarGuy:

Also special thanks to Lyqyd and all the folks from CC forums.
Now my part here was getting the sugar cane from green guitar guy and transform it in ethanol alchool - fuel for cars and stuff, using all the mods listed below i was able to do that, ethanol can be used in a lot of things for energy in-game too so its a valuable resource. The game is quite logical with the procedure, plantballs generating biomass, the biomass on still to ethanol.
For better results, set all the chips aka gates from the pipes to the condition: 'Tank Empty' and action: 'energy pulse' so they will only get ethanol of your reciclying tank when they are empty.
I think there is no need of tutorial of how to build it, besides the programs that show the amounts of ethanol on tanks/engines on monitors (witch i can post the pastebin link if you guys want/suport to) the hole system is pretty simple and speak for it self, from one machine to other is the classic 'item in inventory' condition with 'energy pulse' action
There is a lot of sugar cane for ethanol fields here on southwest of Brasil, where i live. The smell is terrible when they are fermenting thou lol - the dam plants are like 50 Km from here and i can smell it
