    Alcohol Percentage

    I know there's a specific forum for this but it doesn't get many views, so please forgive me. What is the alcohol percentage if I mix 1.75 liter of 95% alcohol with 3 1/2 qts. of water.

    Aging Skeeter Pee

    Although we all love SP when finished and back-sweetened, I've read where some age it . How long do you age it and how much of a difference does it really make ?

    Personal Best

    I made a post the other day asking if anyone leaves their SP in the "primary" until almost dry before racking into the "secondary". I didn't get any replies, but the reason I asked is because this batch was rocking and a rolling. Well, today is day 7 and the SP is .998. I racked into the...

    Tried A Different Version Of SP And Love It.

    After reading a post from another member ( I don't recall his name ) using an extra bottle of Real Lemon juice, I decided to try it and the results were outstanding. What I did different was to use one bottle of juice at the start, then add the second bottle at SG 1.05. I added the last two...

    Just Curious

    Just curious, how many of you have ever checked how accurate your hydrometer is ? I never gave it any thought until I looked into it after dropping mine and having to get a new one today.

    Limoncello, Everclear / Vodka Question

    Although I've made Limoncello many times with excellent results using 80 proof vodka, I would like to improve the seeping time using Everclear. My zest never turns white with the vodka like I've seen when using Everclear but I still get the flavor. What I would like to do is use a limited...

    I Don't Get It

    I don't understand what going on. Almost the entire first page of the " Skeeter Pee" thread has only posts by crabjoe and myself with the exception of a few. Isn't anyone else making this stuff. My first 5 gallon batch came out awesome and I'm going to make plenty more. I can't understand why...

    ABV Change ?

    If I have a 10.3 % abv for 1 gallon of finished wine, how much would it decline by adding a 12 oz can of concentrate to backsweeten ? How about 2 @ 12 oz cans ?
