Right, the only way I know of a normal person removing ethanol is just as you are doing; to cause phase separation by mixing with water (only takes about 3%) and as you can guess although the ethanol and water sink to the bottom this is certainly not something you want to do for obvious reasons.

Next most premium gas DOES NOT have ethanol and would be suitable for your tests AS-IS a much more prudent method.

Gas as its called has over 200 compounds in it so it is rather difficult to state what exactly you will end up with after adding water besides gas with water in it.
