Please can some one explain to me how to calculate the ABV of the Carrot Whiskey/Wine I have made.
I can work out ABV when doing juice based wines but this has me stumped so any help you can give would be appreciated. :thumb:
This is what I did: 2kg carrots boiled for 20 mins. strained water into bucket. Add 1.5 kg sugar and top up to 5 ltr. Hydro read 1.120
Add 1kg wheat, citric acid, nutrient, yeast.
Strain into DJ 5 days later - got 4 ltrs
Topped up to 4.5 ltrs
Fermented out to 0.992
Thanks
Jon
