FAQ

What is USP grade ethanol used for?

USP-grade ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is used for botanical extraction, pharmaceutical manufacturing, culinary flavor and vanilla extracts, laboratory sample prep, and other applications that require high-purity, food-safe alcohol.

What's the difference between USP grade ethanol and denatured or technical grade alcohol?

USP grade ethanol is undenatured, food-grade, and Kosher-certified, meeting the purity standard required for food, pharmaceutical, and extraction use. Technical grade ethanol is lower purity and not intended for food-grade use. Denatured alcohol has additives that make it toxic to consume, so it isn't suitable for extraction or food/pharma applications.

What proof does Simple Solvents' USP ethanol come in?

Simple Solvents' USP grade ethanol is available in 190 proof (95% ethanol) and 200 proof (99.5% ethanol), both undenatured and Kosher-certified.

What sizes can I buy USP ethanol in bulk?

Simple Solvents sells USP ethanol in 1-gallon jugs, 4x1-gallon cases, 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums, and 270-gallon totes, with bulk pricing available on larger sizes.

Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with ethanol orders?

Yes, customers can request a batch Certificate of Analysis for lab-verified purity on their USP ethanol order.

Can USP ethanol be shipped to any state?

No. Food-grade, undenatured ethanol has state-by-state shipping restrictions, and buyers must be 21+ with ID verification at delivery. Check Simple Solvents' shipping restriction guidance for your state before ordering.

ProofAlcohol proof is a measure of the strength and concentration of ethanol in alcoholic beverages or solutions. It is used to indicate the amount of ethanol present as a percentage by volume, providing an easy way to understand the potency and purity of the alcohol. Proof Calculation: In the United States, alcohol proof is calculated as twice the percentage of alcohol by volume (ABV). For example, a liquid with 50% ABV would be labeled as 100 proof. This system helps consumers and manufacturers easily compare the strength of different alcohol products. High-Proof Alcohol: Higher proof alcohol (above 100 proof) is typically used in industrial, medical, and laboratory settings, as well as for creating stronger spirits and extracts. These high-proof alcohols provide more concentrated solutions ideal for specific applications, including botanical extraction and sanitization. Low-Proof Alcohol: Lower proof alcohol (below 100 proof) is more common in beverages like wine and lower-strength spirits, where a more moderate concentration is desirable for consumption. Selecting the right alcohol proof is crucial for its intended use, whether it\'s for food and beverage production, extraction processes, or industrial purposes. Our range of alcohols is available in various proofs to meet your specific needs.
