All ethanol derived from corn shall henceforth be stored in white oak barrels which, having been scorched in the inside, are to be kept sealed for a minimum of 18 months or 2 summer seasons which ever is the longer time.

And I am betting we have FReeper volunteers willing to test the substance at the end of the stated period of storage.

I’ve been using 40% ethanol over 40 years, no problems yet :)

For my small and especially 2 cycle gasoline engines, though, I learned not to use it years ago. Dead carbs after months of sitting. Only non-oxy now. Luckily it’s available here, maybe 50 cents more a gallon.

It’s farmer welfare,and it’s made some people very very rich. It’s energy balance (energy in it vs energy to make it) is crap. It’s water based, not oil, so mixing it with gasoline is good...how? Yeah, it’s past time to look honestly at this tax-eating thing.
