Hey guys, due to stupid moonshine makers in my country the ethanol prices became crazy expensive these days so I was wondering if I could produce some ethanol from pure Glucose syrup. I've read some stuff about fermentation of it with yeast yields 1 mole of ethanol and 1 mole of carbon dioxide but I've wanted to ask you guys first.  Thank you.

How is this possible ? If moonshine makers make illegal competition, then prices should be reduced !

True - yeast convert saccharides (glucose, fructose, saccharose) into ethanol and CO₂. You only need proper size bottle and fermentation lock (filled with water to prevent access of air).

Yeast can produce up to 10- 15 % ethanol solution.

There are "super-yiest" now that can give higher % ethanol, these are available probably via ebay.
