I know what I'm reading in the winemaking-FAQ:
(Start SG - Finish SG) / 0.0074 = % alc
That's easy enough. It's not consistent with what I think I'm understanding from Pambianchi who calculates down to a finishing SG of
1.00 regardless of the actual value which often is < 1.00.Which is correct?
The former seems more reasonable to me.
