Just bought a new refractometer, made to measure alcohol, directions say will not read properly if it's a sweet wine.
So. I took a wine that's at .990, calibrated the unit using distilled water, and took my measurment. Well it says my wine is 25% how can that be? Since there's 10 points from .990 and 1.000 do I subtract 10 points from the reading?
