My notes on mashing corn are all packed away now, but you

I am very keen to get off the meth also Jim. I have by no means given
up or anything, just haven't got to it yet. I did collect some ethanol
but didn't get as far as you with the sieves. Read up on using corn

Hello Pannir and Keith,
Pannir has indicated that he is interested the use of ethanol instead of
methanol to make ethyl esters because methanol is not readily available in some
developing countries.
While methanol is available to me, my supplier just quoted a price of
$4.41/gal (USD)
