First, call a well stocked liquor store and ask if they have 200 proof anhydrous ethyl alcohol. Full service liquor stores supply hospitals and laboratories with 200 proof anhydrous ethyl (100% pure ethyl alcohol - no water) in the United States. 200 proof is preferred because it has no water. 190 proof (95% ethyl - 5% water) is ok but 5% residual water is a negative, especially when evaporated down. If the store doesn't have 200 proof, the salespeople will know where to get it.

If a permit is needed, call the state liquor board (usually in the State Capital) and ask for an application to get an ethyl alcohol permit. The fee is 5 or 10 dollars. On the application will be a question asking what the use of the alcohol will be. Write what they more or less want to hear. State that the use of the alcohol will be for "non-toxic surface sterilizing plus herb extraction - preservation - tincture - and perfume making" (or something to that effect). The poison warnings on the alcohol bottles and this idiotic red tape are just bureaucratic nonsense that results in the state making a big fat bundle off of the sale.

Doesn't the denatured alcohol leave a residu? better not use it for extractions then?

Everclear is the hardest sh*t I have drank, it's avalible at every liquor store I've been into. I live near Chicago though I don't know about the rest of the U.S. but its definatly not illegal. But Isuggest you don't drink it, its fucking dangerous,but if you do just watch how much of that shit you drink.

Yes I live in a state where everclear is illegal, actually i think they can sell 151 everclear but not the 190 proof everclear which is the highest proof possible. I think 97% is the highest physically possible amount of alcohol in everclear because you can't get all of the water out. I believe everclear is legal in places like illinois and indiana though. THe nice thing about it is that it is quite inexpensive and of course quite potent. I think its normally like $15 for a fifth at most as i remember. Its definintely some strong stuff.

everclear/grain alcohol is very much legal in the US. it's at every liquer store I have been to. Not sure what the problem is, if you can't get that get tripple distilled vodka, it is very similar.

Alcohol typically gives me massive hangovers, ya know headache, bodyache, sometimes nausea,theall aroundfeeling like SHIIIT. Then I tried everclear and it doesn't give me a hangover at all. In fact I am clear headed energized and generally happierthe day after getting shit faced on everclear. It's so noticable that sometimes I'll get shit faced the night before a long day at work or school. Anyone experience the same thing with this stuff or is my body chemistry wacko?


I would guess the higher alcohol percent has something to do with it but I am clueless to why... anyone know what the deal is with this stuff or experience the same thing as I do?
