Not denatured, 95% is ok too.

Everclear 190 is $35 for 1.75L at Binny's

so that's my backup plan, but I think I should be able to get a gallon around that price, cheapest food grade I've found is $60 free shipping

190 is fine, I can use the everclear 190 as it, it's just expensive as I will use a lot of it.

I need it to use as a solvent to make something for human consumption, so denatured is no good.

But if they can sell a gallon of denatured for $30 a gallon there is no reason not denatured shouldn't be the same price - they add chemicals to denatured alcohol so people won't drink it.

if youre putting the devils lettuce in it college kids have slapped just plant material into bottles of everclear and let it sit for a couple months for decades

tastes like absolute hell but it works, so my friend told me any way

There is a limit to how pure alcohol can be because you evaporate alcohol when distilling. The steam will never be 100% alcohol.

95% everclear is as strong as any alcohol can be.

it exists, but like i said 95% or 190 proof is fine too, just needs to be 95%-100%

Actually there is a reason - if it can't be consumed then it doesn't get taxed as an alcoholic beverage so they can sell it for cheaper.
