Adjusting sugar and TA?

Are there any general guidelines? Not on what they should be, but how to adjust them.

Like with these grapes for instance:

ZINFANDEL Brix: 18.5 TA:.50 pH:3.54 $28 MERLOT Brix: 21.0 TA:.45 pH:3.81 $29

How many pounds of grapes do boxes usually hold, btw?

The low Brix and low acid values given above suggest _gross_ over-cropping, so I wouldn't buy those grapes. "Boxes" usually contain 36 pounds of grapes. lum
