Now that i got your attention, I need to know how to make ethanol..
yes, I tried google and no luck, either they just state the steps and talk about what they are and don't divulge into details
And this isn't for personal gain, its for reasearch.

I just need steps with specific instructions to make them ethanol..
So far I have checked the following:
http://westernplains...iz/ethanol.html
http://www.green-tru...ust_ethanol.htm
and various Wiki pages..

It would be a great help too

Yeah, 195-Proof drinks are crazy. I don't know how to make ethanol. Who would when they could go to a local grocery store and buy some?

Actually, in this research of our group (we are three people ) we will be extracting from jackfruit
some other group from past batches used a different fruit of the same genre or family so i think this will be good

i know ethanol is like a gas, its made from corn. no joke. haha and they use it for energy purposes. Theres two enthanol plants in Canada. Why would you wanna make enthanol?

That'll probably help, but you'd be crazy to even think of making 195-proof drinks...

A shot of pure ethonol will cause you to go blind, deaf, or die. Honestly. That much ethonol is deadly. Stay the hell away from it. It's not because its so much ethonol, it is due to the concentration. When it gets into your blood stream and goes to yuor brian it causes severe problems.

Please do not attempt to make/drink this. It is also highly flamable.

I found the previous research done with ethanol, turns out im gonna use yeast, gelatinized glucosed solutions, HCl and i think some water and time
I think the term was acidic hydrolysis then fermentation and a big thank you to all those who helped and provided information *feels smarter*

Shit. You guys are right. xD That's Methyl. A guy at my school drank a cup (thinking he was cool) and was rushed to the emergency room. Turns out his is partly blind or something now.

I have never met the guy, this is what several teachers (including my chemistry teacher that witnessed it) said.

My bad! No reason to go off cursing at me and telling me I don't know a damn thing. I just forgot the "M"!
