Pure, sometimes called “absolute” ethanol, is 100% ethanol. Absolute food grade ethanol is preferred for many common techniques in food research and development, including food grade extraction and fraction isolation, or food grade synthesis.
For food grade synthesis, the presence of water could result in undesired byproducts. For example, many volatile organic compounds are synthesized in ethanol, and can be added to food to manipulate flavor and aroma. The use of food grade solvents in all of these applications ensures the safety and purity of food and food standards for consumers.
Buy Food Grade Ethanol 200 Proof 100% Pure Alcohol In Bulk Sizes, Non-Denatured Ethyl Alcohol Products For Sale, Packaged In Bottles, Drums, Totes, Pallets.
Food Grade Ethanol, 200 Proof, Kosher, Halal is undenatured ethyl alcohol (CAS 64-17-5) graded FCC (Food) and certified Kosher and Halal. It’s a clear, colorless liquid with an ethanolic odor. At 200 proof (199.0 to 200.0 on the spec), it’s also sold as absolute or anhydrous ethanol. The spec calls for ethanol at a minimum of 99.5%, methanol at a maximum of 200 ppm, water at a maximum of 1000 ppm and nonvolatile residue at a maximum of 2.5 mg/100mL. The formula is C2H5OH, with a molecular weight of 46.07. Its GRAS reference is 21 CFR 184.1293, and it carries Vegan and GMO Free badges. Product Manuals include the Safety Data Sheet, Technical Data Sheet, Kosher and Halal certifications, GRAS, allergen, GMO free, vegan and nutritional statements, plus lot Certificates of Analysis.
You’ll find this ethanol in food research and development, including food grade extraction, fraction isolation and food grade synthesis, where water can lead to undesired byproducts. It’s also listed for food processing, reagent and solvent work, cosmetics and perfumes. The trouble starts when a supplier can’t send the paperwork, the right size or hazmat freight on time. Lab Alley fixes that. The SDS, TDS and certification documents are on this page, sizes run from a pint bottle to pallets, and hazmat handling is covered from order to delivery. Pick your size, set up Autoship, or request a quote for bulk. On budget, on time, every time.

Q: What is Food Grade Ethanol 200 Proof used for?
A: It’s used in food research and development, including food grade extraction, fraction isolation and synthesis. The page also lists food processing, reagent and solvent work, cosmetics and perfumes.Q: What does FCC (Food) Grade mean, and is it suitable for food grade extraction?
A: FCC (Food) Grade is the grade listed for this product, and food grade extraction is one of the uses named in its description. Check the Technical Data Sheet and the Certificate of Analysis against your own requirements before you order.Q: What sizes are available, and does it ship as hazmat?
A: Sizes range from a pint to pallets, with options such as 500 mL, 1 L, 1 gal, 4 L, 5 gal and cases. Yes, it ships as hazmat and a hazmat fee applies. For bulk orders, call Lab Alley customer service at 512-668-9918.Q: How do I get the SDS and Certificate of Analysis?
A: Both are on this page. Open the Product Manuals section for the Safety Data Sheet and Technical Data Sheet, then switch to the Certificates of Analysis list, which is organized by lot number. The document icons near the product photo link there too.Q: How should it be stored?
A: Read our How to Store Ethanol guide, then follow the handling and storage section of the Safety Data Sheet for your container size.Q: What ethanol content does it have?
A: The spec lists ethanol at a minimum of 99.5% and proof of 199.0 to 200.0. Results for each lot are on the Certificates of Analysis.Q: Is it Kosher and Halal certified?
A: Yes. The product title and badges show both, and the Kosher and Halal certifications are in the Product Manuals list. The GRAS reference citation is 21 CFR 184.1293.Q: How is this different from other ethanol on your site?
A: This listing is FCC (Food) Grade, undenatured and 200 proof. Another listing is labeled USP/FCC Food Grade, so compare the grade and documents on each page. For denatured or other types, browse the Ethanol category.
