It's easy to do but a guy needs a 5-6 gallon translucent container with a petcock at the bottom to drain off the ethanol. Does anyone know where to get such a container?

I don't know but I'd think you'd be the guy to know where to get a pet cock.

Says the man who has no cock! laugh And DeFlave, I see you're hitting the bottle again. Thought nearly dying from CV-19 would teach you some humility but I guess not.

It can’t be done. It takes 1000 gallons of water to make 1 gallon of ethanol!

Do not even think of drinking it.
Industrial ethanol is contaminated with MEK, by law.
And you can't (practically) seperate them. The distill in the same
temp range. That's why they use MEK.

Hope this thread keeps going. My interest is starting up, not that I would attempt to do it, but would like to learn a bit about ethanol.

Mr. Funnel

Fuel ethanol is denatured with gasoline.


Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense.

The process also remotes the octane booster(which is usually the ethanol).

Specifically, a bushel of corn used for ethanol produces 1.5 pounds of corn oil, 17.5 pounds of high-protein feed called DDGS, 2.6 pounds of corn meal and 31.5 pounds of starch. The starch can be converted to sweeteners or used to produce 2.8 gallons of ethanol. DDGS displaces whole corn and some soybeans traditionally used in animal feed and in actuality it only takes 3.8 gallons of water to make ethanol.

I have a couple of clear plastic collapsible containers meant for water. I bought them for camping. They weren’t expensive. You reckon that would work?

I just go to the Co-Op and buy non ethanol gas.
