3D-Fuel Buzzed Beer-based Filament
3D print with beer filament! Buzzed is a beer-based 3D printing filament made using waste byproducts from the beer making process. Buzzed uses those beer left-overs to create a special 3D printing material. 3D printing with Buzzed beer filament results in visibly unique print finishes. The filament produces products with a rich golden color and a noticeable natural grain. Buzzed beer filament can be printed on any machine capable of printing with PLA using standard PLA settings.
Note: Because this material uses bio-waste, color may vary from batch to batch.

| Buzzed - Beer Filament | |
| Recommended Extrusion Temperature: | Buzzed prints well at 180-210°C. In general, a good starting point is 10°C cooler than you typically print standard PLA. |
| Recommended Nozzle size: | 0.5mm or larger diameter nozzles. Smaller diameter nozzles can be used but have a higher likelihood of clogging. |
|
Recommended Retraction Settings: |
0.25mm per 0.1mm of nozzle diameter (ie. 1.25mm retraction when using a 0.5mm diameter nozzle) |
|
Recommended Print Surface: |
Hot - Glass heated to 60-70°C or 50°C with a very light coat of pva glue. (if using any glue, or hairspray with a heated bed use it very sparingly. PLA will stick very well and can be difficult to remove without braking or chipping the glass. Cold - Blue Painter's tape, glass with a coat of glue, Buildtak surfaces PLA bonds very firmly to acrylic. Printing directly on an acrylic surface is not recommended. |

Print Cooling fan? |
Print cooling fans are highly recommended with PLA-based filament and usually result in a very noticeable improvement in the appearance of the print. Print cooling fans also greatly improve the ability to bridge gaps and print overhanging areas without support when using PLA-based filaments. |
