Hey all, remember this thread?
http://www.winemakingtalk.com/forum/f6/calling-all-would-scientest-38884/
Well, pretty much my previous thread on coming up with an alternative ABV equation fizziled out when we encountered that ABV is a function of an unknown ABV correction. Pretty much what I have done is built on the previous work that we discussed on this forum but came up with an empirical correction for the previous equation that makes it solvable.
Also, in the attached PDF I went through the whole derivation in math format so it is all nice and pretty. If you do not want to deal with all the math the last page has an example and the final equation(s) depending on whether or not you want to iterate the solution until it converges.
What would be extremely helpful would be if some of you guys could use the equation in your ferments and report back the results, that way we can see how they compare to other equations that are out there. I have done some comparisons myself and it seems to be pretty good.
BTW, thank you all to helped contribute to the previous discussion!
