Collection: 190 Proof Food Grade Ethanol

 

If you are looking for the best 190 proof food grade ethanol for purchase, you have come to the right place. 

Culinary Solvent is pure 190 proof food grade non-denatured ethanol purchased direct from the Northern Maine Distilling Company.  Non-denatured means "No Additives".  Only non-denatured alcohol products, including Everclear 190 proof and Culinary Solvent, are safe for human consumption.

 

Culinary Solvent is the ideal ingredient when your recipe calls for Everclear 190 proof or alcohol in any form. (Is Culinary Solvent the Same as Everclear 190 proof grain alcohol?) Perfect for making food safe products intended to be consumed, including vanilla extract, herbal tincture, organic food coloring, cocktail bitters, or to preserve fruit.  Pure ethyl alcohol is safe to dilute to 70% ABV (view my recipe) for use as a CDC approved cleaner and disinfectant in the kitchen, laboratory, workshop, or nursery.

190 proof products are currently limited to a minimum container size of 5 gallons.  This limitation is placed on us by the laws and regulations of our industry, for a more detailed explanation including gallons and quarts, as well as information on the rule language, please visit our blog post on the topic.

Just add water!  190 proof is 95% ethyl alcohol, while 200 proof represents 100% ethyl alcohol by volume.  To convert a quart of 200 proof Culinary Solvent down to 190 proof, simply add approximately three tablespoons (45ml) of ordinary tap water.  For more information visit our "190 proof from 200 proof recipe" blog post.
