Hmm not sure if I have any 91% laying around still might have chucked them, simple enough to go get some more though

Was just gonna say that. I can't remember what temp it freezes at but I can find out. Ever Clear has a lower freezing point but I just can't get any out here.

I use it with the Phantom Dual Wall setup at max LN2 temps it did freeze solid.

Here you go...

• Wood alcohol (methanol)
– freezes at -97.8° C (-144.0° F)
– boils at 64.7° C (148.5°F)
• Grain alcohol (ethanol)
– freezes at -114.1° C (-173.4° F) -- Everclear Alcohol? Something 180+ Proof
– boils at 78.5° C (173.3° F)
• Liquors:
– 24 proof liquor freezes at -6.7°C (20°F)
– 64 proof liquor freezes at -23.33°C (-10°F)
– 84 proof liquor freezes at -34.44°C (-30°F)
• Isopropyl Alcohol
– 90% isopropyl freezes around -90.0°C

Does alcohol evaporate like mad out of your pot so you have to keep adding it?

I like acetone. Alcohol tends to gel, acetone doesn't. Just a matter of preference though, whatever works for the individual.
