Shot Making???

[maisey]

Hello

I didn't really know where to put this but here we go . . .
I recently bought a shot making kit, as its quite simple to make.
The shot making kit is only %15 and was wondering how to increase the alcohol percentage, Ive heard of adding more sugar but would have no idea how much etc
Can anybody help me please???

Thanks

add a small amount and test for initial fv if it doesnt make the grade add some more till you get the right amount use the calculator to give you your final gravity! :

You're not going to get much beyond that strength, the yeast can't take it. i gather that some of the high alcohol yeasts are quite fussy- steady temp, higher than room temperature, etc.
