Hi all,
First problem, the scone burner broke the hydrometer...GGGRRR
On a positive the new refractometer has arrived.
Second problem, how the hell do you adjust a refractometer reading to account for alcohol.(FG)
I have a Brown Ale that shows 1.025 @ 22C and a Swiss Lager that shows 1.019 @12C
Have racked them both.
There are some graphs floating around the site about alc adjust but jeeez they confuse the shit out of me.... too many dead brain cells I suspect.
What to do??
