[QUOTE="salcoco, post: 635988, member: 30385"] adding sugar buy it self will not affect the ph or the acid. However if you add water to dissolve the sugar before adding to the must it may change it a slight amount. Normally the procedure is check brix adjust as necessary. then check ph and acid and adjust as necessary. during fermentation the co2 will cause an increase in carbonic acid which will lower the ph and raise the acid. although in rereading your statement you did degass the sample.I believe the carbonic acid would have affected you reading.
