How to make Alcohol(Ethanol) from sugar and yeast

[@tirthagopalsaha6843]

When i was in hostel i used to make beer within 24 hours by this formula and enjoy it with friends 😂😂😅

[@Bossman50.]

That’s what I’m doing!

Can i use the the same yeast that is used to elevate home bread paste??? Saccharamyces cerevicieae.

[@TheDIYChemist]

Yes

[@indulkarshailu]

Nice information, How to make sure it's ethanol and not methanol which is harmful? Thank you

[@TheDIYChemist]

There are test by which we can differntiate methanol and ethanol like iodoform test which will be given by ethanol. Oxidation test oxidising methanol with acidified KmnO4 will yield CO2 gas but oxidising ethanol with KMnO4 will give acetic acid which can be detected by its vinegar like smell. But in fermentation only ethanol is produced and not methanol. This process have been used to produce drinkable ethanol from years. So u cant doubt it.

[@analmozumder8710]

​@@TheDIYChemistIt is drinkable?

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

No, you will be okay, yeast converts it into ethanol, not methanol.

[@Nathan-cc4gy]

I dont have distillation. can i just used it for aluminum can stove. Just raw after fermentation

[@fazalkhan4788]

did you make the bottle top for permantation lock yourself?

[@ya_pimp]

Thanks you explained this process along better than the others I appreciate you

[@AvrilK-o7z]

👍👍👍Wow you are very clever thank you for sharing your expertise🙌🙌🙌

[@Pragalatha_Narasimman_Tamil]

Dear Chemist, Can you please tell, does this process simultaneously produce methanol. How to avoid methanol in this process?

[@TheDIYChemist]

No

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

Nope, it only produces ethanol. And most people use fermentation which does not make methanol.

[@gauravmahtha5592]

can we drink it

[@czhefu8950]

Not it has high concentrations of methanol

[@justanormaldefaultpfp9309]

No it doesnt sugar doesn't produce methanol fruit pectin does evein with fruit it os a negligible amount​@czhefu8950

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

@@czhefu8950 Dude, what are you talking about? Sugar/yeast does not make methanol. It only makes ethanol.

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

Yes, you can, its safe to drink, it only makes ethanol (alcohol).

[@AnthonyAnakapu-bm3ui]

I am learning to produce Ethanol to use for my Bio-fuel Production.Through watching your process of production,I wish to use this method of Ethanol production to produce Bio-Fuel....Anthony Anakapu Lawton..Alotau,Milne Bay,Papua New Guinea..

[@rkyt2k24]

Put the output inside the jar not above (if you did not burn down the place already)

[@jediknight8738]

Is it safe? Methanol or some other compounds ? Sterilization of Equipment?

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

Yes, its safe dude, fermentation only makes ethanol (alcohol), you will be okay, dude!

[@arnavsawant5429]

If i use less water and after, can i skip the last process of boiling?

[@TheDIYChemist]

No

[@Myheartyspace]

If the measurement of sugar and water...will i not get the desired result

[@StupidRat-k4s]

dont think it rlly matters, just use about what he did

At first how many liquid we should through it away when are distilling our sugar wash per litre??

I dont throw

Alcohol is not something one should drink. Yes of course you can but you shouldn't

It can b used only for sanitize our hands

[@skabdul9383]

Sir please give me dep oil formula

[@VultureXV]

IMHO the best fermentation containers are the ones leftover from gallon jugs of Sangria. Bout $20 at Walmart. What you do with the liquid beforehand is up to you really.

[@therandomlofi5421]

Can we drink?

[@TheDIYChemist]

You can drink it but you should not drink it.

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

​@@TheDIYChemist Then why show us how to make it then, huh? Sugar and yeast make ethanol, its SAFE! Its not like it converts it into methanol, which it does not!! So why show us how to make it if you tell us to not drink it? What mixed up message is that?! So you are gonna show us the steps, how to make it, and the details, and then tell us to not enjoy the fruits of our labor?! So you wanna tell us to not enjoy something that requires money to buy. Yeast and sugar is not free you know, and the base (juice or water) is not free either. So you are telling us to waste money basically, wow, congrats!

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

Yes, you can drink it man, do not listen to the creator. He knows nothing. You can drink it. Its safe. And it only produces ethanol, so its safe! Enjoy your alcohol! :D

[@TheDIYChemist]

It only produces ethanol even I know. But you shouldn't even drink that . Ethanol is itself toxic though not toxic like methanol. I can tell you many bad effects of drinking alcohol tell me any one good advantage of drinking. Ethanol has a variety of uses instead of drinking you drunker. It's used as a solvent, chemical, spirit, sanitizer, medicine etc.

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

@@TheDIYChemist Yeah, ethanol can be toxic, but you’re ignoring the fact that moderation is the key, just like with any substance. Drinking alcohol responsibly isn’t the same as chugging it down and getting wasted. Just like water can be deadly if you drink too much, ethanol can be harmful, but only in excessive amounts. Sure, ethanol is used in solvents and sanitizers, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s also used as a drinkable substance. You’re trying to sidetrack the conversation into industrial uses, but that’s not what we’re talking about. People are making alcohol to drink, not to clean their countertops. People drink alcohol responsibly every day. It’s been a part of human culture for centuries. If you're not into drinking, that's fine, but don’t try to make it sound like it's some inherently dangerous thing just because you don’t personally like it. You’re still confusing people with your fearmongering. The fermentation process is straightforward-yeast converts sugar into ethanol, period. It's safe when done properly. You're just spreading unnecessary panic when you say people ‘shouldn’t’ drink it. You’re not even giving people the credit to know what they’re doing. The whole point of this video was to show people how to make alcohol. If you’re going to tell them not to drink it, then why even show them how to make it in the first place? You're just sending mixed messages. Yes, overconsumption of alcohol has bad effects, just like overconsumption of anything. The key is moderation. And there are plenty of good reasons people drink alcohol: it can help with relaxation, socializing, and even has some potential health benefits when consumed in moderation. But that’s a whole different discussion. You can’t keep saying ‘It’s safe to make’ but ‘Don’t drink it’-that’s a total contradiction. If it’s safe to make, it’s safe to drink responsibly. You’re just trying to scare people for no reason. At the end of the day, you can’t scare people with misinformation. If you’re not an expert on alcohol or fermentation, it’s probably better to just admit that and leave people to enjoy their DIY projects. You’ve got no real reason to stop them from having a little fun with their creations.

Are u sure that bottle is 2 liters? Bcx in some countries its 1,5

@@TheDIYChemist just answer his question, aint nobody watching that

[@pde445]

@@TheDIYChemist What a rude way to respond to someone asking for help. You must not know anything if you say that kind of response. So much for "I know how to do this!" and no one is gonna rewind from the very start of the video for one piece of info so just answer his God damn question!

[@TheDIYChemist]

@@AriesTheBestGaming listen you fool the video had been a year or more old don't expect me that I would be knowing each and every detail in the video. To answer his question even I would have to rewind the video and see. It's his fault that he didn't watch the video properly. Why should I help him . It's his fault that he skipped the video. You better don't teach me

[@saikatroy7152]

Which yeast you have used

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

You can use any yeast.

[@WildernessMedic]

What in the world are you doing wrong to only get 47% with fractional distillation

[@TheDIYChemist]

Column is not good, slowly and gradually i improvised it in next video to 86% and then i build a fractionating column then i got 95%

[@WildernessMedic]

@@TheDIYChemist I guess so. I didn't even know you could get that low through a fractional column. My simple distillation get's it much higher than 47%

Bro you made methanol in the first place , which you did not say? Am I right? That was not perfect ethanol and that can kill you,if you drink it!

[@TheDIYChemist]

Methanol is not made in this process

[@samj923]

@@TheDIYChemist first 5 ml will be methanol and then will only be ethanol. So if methanol is not taken ,and throwed away,if we drink we die!

[@czhefu8950]

Methanol was made bro. Yeast produces both ethanol and methanol during fermentation and distillation concentrates it as methanol has a lower boiling point (around 65degree celsius)

[@TheDIYChemist]

I did fractional distillation and not simple distillation and no distilaate was collected below 78℃

[@AriesTheBestGaming]

@@czhefu8950 Stop trying to scare people. Yeast only converts the sugar into ethanol. Get your facts right! And most people don't do distillation! And God fucking damn dude, fermentation only makes ethanol!

[@theultimatesilentboy2799]

Thankyou

[@occamraiser]

Unbelievable. Making alcohol from sugar and yeast! Yes, it's called brewing....it's been universally practiced for about 6000 years. As for the chemistry set...... yes it's called distilling, that's only about 1000 years old.
