Hi, so, I have racked my mango WOW - and "wow"...it tastes, at this point, pretty good! It fermented down to about 1005....with no airlock activity for a few days. And has a lovely, and fairly strong mango flavour. And has a slight sweetness that I like. This is giving me an ABV of about 13%. I now need to degas...
I was in the supermarket last night and was considering more WOWs - using Rubicon fruit juice as they are again on offer (which is what I used for the above); however I noticed that teh 'new' cartons all boasts that they are half the sugar (and now show 4.8g/100ml). They are "sweetened" with steviol(?)...
My question is, does this artificial sweetener affect my SG reading....or will it not matter? One assumes it is "equally as sweet" but with half the sugar, so that must effect the fermentation?
