Diethyl ether cannot participate in hydrogen bonding with water. It also has nonpolar side chains which are not attracted to the polar molecule water. Diethyl ether is soluble with water to some extent (6.9g/100mL) but is not miscible.

What to do to make ethanol as water immiscible?

To make ethanol immiscible in water, you can add a substance that forms a separate layer, such as a nonpolar solvent like hexane or diethyl ether. This will create two distinct layers where ethanol is separated from water. Using a separation funnel, you can then extract the ethanol layer from the water layer.
