I made a couple of small batches where I shot for an ABV of 13.5 using the chart that came with my hydrometer - about 1.105 starting SG
They ended at .994 which resulted in 14.5% ABV according to some online calculators and the wine tasted very strong
So I'm thinking that the chart is based on the idea that you would cut off fermentation at SG = 1.0 ?
Is that correct with most of these potential ABV charts?
