I'm putting together one of the MJ Craft Series Ciders (Pear and Strawberry).
I've dropped in an extra 500gm of Brown Sugar (in addition to the 1kg of dextrose instructed) to give it extra kick (rather than the 4.7%). Just doing a gravity reading prior to pitching and I'm getting 1.106!
Temp is 30C - so even adjusted i am still looking at 1.105.
I've calibrated the Hydro in fresh water and it's pretty much spot on the 1.000.
This is just not making sense to me, any ideas or thoughts?
Cheers
