Been getting into the whole homebrew beer thing lately, recently have been also looking at using a still to produce vodka.
Only thing is you end up with strong strong vodka around 95% alcohol content.
All its made from is sugar, all your really doing is turning sugar into alcohol. Mixing sugar with yeast in an air tight enviroment (anaerobic) it forms your loverly alcohol/ethanol
A still seem like a fairly easily thing to produce its a pretty basic concept, as the diagram shows
Everyone knows that you can buy e10, is there any reason why you couldnt add ethanol to your 98 too boost the octane level?
has anyone had a stab at this?
It all seems to easy in "THEORY" as im pretty sure its illegal to do.
Any input would be great, i know that theres alot of very cleaver people on this forum that no doubt know a hell of alot more about chemistry then i do.
just some more reading about it
