>My question to you is why ethanol? What drove >you to select ethanol >as the "replacement" fuel source for this application Hi Anti Fossil, . Several reasons. First there is the danger of propane. Propane is a gas that under pressure is a liquid. I admit I am too careless with propane. I would like to get rid of it for safety reasons if nothing else. You should wear safety equipment when filling, transporting and attaching the propane cylinder to the BBQ. The liquid propane boils to a gas when the pressure is released. If when attaching the tank to the BBQ or upon filling or at anytime you get a liquid propane leak and get it in your eye, your eye ball will be instantly frozen. Ethanol on the other hand is so non toxic that government requires that you make it toxic before you are allowed to use it. Now doesn't that make sense to a Bureaucrat. Propane is considered a clean fuel but it is a fossil fuel. Ethanol is a renewable fuel, it is much cleaner than propane and it is free! and I like free! There is the labour in converting the organic potato and apple waste by fermentation from a restaurant and then a small energy charge in the distilling process. There is danger involved in the tank and BBQ conversion so I do not recommend that anyone actually try it without professional help of which I am not. I plan to wait until warm weather to use the sun to help purge the tank so it will be a while before I attempt the conversion.
