Gravity and things

[evanvine]

I have a refractometer calibrated in % sugar.
By making 25g of white sugar up to 250ml with distilled water I get an SG reading of 1.036 on my hydrometer.
So 10% sugar = SG 1.036 and a simple calculation tells me what other %’s are in terms of SG.
What is the correction formula for alcohol present when using the refractometer?
Also what are the relationships between Oeschle, Brix, Balin, Baumes and Specific gravity scales (I don’t vouch for the spellings, sorry Moley)? :?

Edit
Corrected spellings
Ochsle
Baume(e acute)
Balling

Here's one that'll do it all for ya http://slobrewer.com/mobile/refract.html
This one works out Abv as well http://brew.stderr.net/refractometer.html
And here are some that will tell you the starting SG with only the final gravity readings!http://www.brewheads.com/calc.php

I can't seem to find any written Equations for you as I know you'd like to do it in your head!

I'm sure somebody one here knows of it.

Thanks for all that effort MD.
I shall peruse those URL's when I've woken up a bit. :whistle:
