[Greg and April]

No problem - been out of town for a medical test and I'm still catching up.

  Hi Greg,

  Mark Ludlow just spoke about this.  He said Acetobacteria converts the EtOH into vinegar (acetic acid).

  Regards,

    Adding the char to the compost pile will alow the ethanol to be used as a 
    carbon source ( mix well with nitrogen source ).

    Just dumping it on the ground ( and keeping moist ), the ethanol will 
    biodegrade to viniger ( which is used as a herbacide ).


    I hope that this is of use.
