Hello all.
I'm a wee bit frustrated on accuracy or lack thereof in the blueberry dessert recipe from the Winemaker Magazine. Things were fine until last night, when I was meant to be removing the pulp from the primary. This I did. I also took an S.G. reading (1.025). Then, the directions indicated I must top up the one gallon with water. Well, in order to top up a one gallon, that means I added 1.75 LITRES to my new wine. sg of 1.020.
How on EARTH will that ever be accurate?????? That's almost half a gallon of water added to it. Even if it tastes fine, how on earth do I know what the heck I made, and how much alcohol volume there is????
Thanks,
Julie
