Other Do grape skin packs raise SG

[QuiQuog]

The title kind of says it. Does adding grape skins packs raise the SG of kits? If so, how much, roughly?

 

[Jim Welch]

In my experience most do, however Finer Wine kit grapes do not. I can’t recall how much though. I take my final OG reading 6-8 hours and several good stirrings after adding the skin packs.

As Jim says, they do in a traditional kit. IME, a Winexpert or Cellarcraft kit will see an increase of ~0.015 points. I do not know about Finer Wines.
