It seems that we do not have E85 in the UK.
I have been onto my friend Google and still no dice.
So is there anywhere to get E85 in the UK or will it ever be available here?

Fairly certain this is why:
n the 2000/2001 season, world maize exports broke down as follows figures in tons:
United States 49,500,000
Argentina 9,500,000
China 6,000,000
*Hungary 2,000,000
South Africa 1,300,000
*Romania 300,000
*Ukraine 200,000
*EU 100,000
Thailand 100,000

Sorry I do not follow? This is for exports, Europe are lower on the export scale so could suggest that they are using all their ptoduced maize and not exporting much, US have very high exports so based on the information provided it doesn't state where it's being exported.... etc etc. there are a lot of ways to interpret the data you have provided? |

Ethanol is a grain alcohol.. Sugar is usually added, and to be honest I don't know if sugar cane is a grain?

Dont´know if I undestood rigth, but there is a picture of sugarcane:   You squize it and will have a liquid very sweet that you can drink, and after some other process cachaça, sugar (the solid) and Ethanol. |

sugar + yeast = alcohol. when they say grain alcohol it something like cornmeal or wheat or rye or something of that nature was used also with sugar added. thats for drinking, not making shity tasting fuel. not that I've chugged e85 before...I swear...  Although here in FL I've seen swamp buggies run on straight moonshine which was about 95-98% pure "grain" alcohol. |

Now methanol I don't believe these united states has any regulations to discourage production, unless it's changed very recently. It's probably somewhat similar world wide. If you've got a welding or gas supply shop near you your set up to run. I've sat in on a few runs of methanol but it's relatively hazardous, and without the "personal" benefits.
