Star San Concentration Ratio

[fazz1975]

I have recently purchased some Star San sanitiser and read on the label that it should be mixed 1 ounce per gallon of water.
After doing the conversions, I came up with a ratio around 8ml / Litre.

However, everything that I have been able to glean from these forums suggests 1.5ml / Litre.

Have I made an error in converting ? (1 Fluid ounce = 29.57ml, 1 gallon = 3.785 litres)

Please help.

The instructions I've seen on this and other forums, and admittedly I don't have a bottle to read the back of, say 1oz for 5gall, which brings closer to the 1.5ml...

googling 'starsan dilution' gives page after page saying 1oz to 5gal. As does the product tech sheet on the manufacturers website.

Sorry guys, I think I need my glasses checked.

The bottle does say 1oz per 5 gallon.

I shall now wither away in embarrassment. :unsure:
