TY Debbie! What happens when you start on the high side, like 1.100? My recipe: 15 lbs fruit (strawb, blackberries, blueberries) 15 lbs sugar (started at 10 lbs, but the OG was 1.070) 10 tsp citric acid 1 pkt wine yeast and some nutrient OG 1.100 S Gravity after 1 week 1.040...

Hi all! I am just transferring my first ferment into a glass carboy. (5 gal) I've taken SP readings and have a question. My original gravity reading was 1.10 After 8 days it is 1.04. That only gives me approx. a 8-9% potential alc. I'm trying to hit 12-13% Will it rise as it...
