Hi guys,
I've been lurking and reading forum for a while but now I need some advice with my first batch from concord grapes.
I have roughly 100L of prepared must, SG reading 1050, but I'm not sure how much juice it will yield so my problem is with addition of sugar.
Tomorrow I'm planning to add yest starter but I'm not sure if I can add sugar for secondary fermentation or do I have to (should I?) add some for primary fermentation?
If I should add sugar for primary fermentation how can I calculate how much if I'm not sure how much juice will I have to start with?
I'm not following any recipe so any advice guys? I'm aiming at 1100SG and do my calculations based on that.
