Bitcoin Mining Clothes Dryer
https://i.imgur.com/w4lVCSN.mp4
Here at the homestead we host guests at our house as well as a 20ft yurt so one of the largest power usages is the electric clothes dryer. In the busy season, the dryer is usually running for several hours a day. It made a lot of sense to use a Bitcoin miner for the heat instead of the heating element in the dryer.
I tried to use what I already had as much as possible to connect the miner to the dryer, so for less than $100 I was able to make it work. Basically needed a 20a 220v breaker and 220v outlet plus some ductwork. I simply cut a hole in the heating duct in the back of the dryer and attached a 6in duct coupling to it. If I need to I can cap off the coupling and continue to use the dryer as normal. Basically if the Bitcoin miner breaks down I won't be stranded without a dryer.
To operate, I set the dryer to timed dry, set the heat to air dry, and turn on the miner. After using it for a dozen loads or so it definitely works well. Next I will be working on how to reduce the noise from the miner fans but to start I wanted to make sure it was capable of drying laundry first. Feels good to get sats back for one one of the largest power usages on the homestead!

Holy cats! That is crazy! Brava!
So, the extension service program manager attended today’s workshop. We had a great conversation about future topics. I started a push for master food preservation (canner). He has never heard of it. Managed to find one program in Idaho to send a link to him. It is below. Anyone know of any others in the USA?

nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg question: why do I see. A message that I zapped my own posts? I am not doing that.
Uh this day is starting rough. I got off routine early with Mr Holstein on vacation this week. Didn’t get my thermometer shot, running behind for Bibles & Brunch setup.
Good morning all y’all. LOL
