So for example, if my OG is something like 1.070, and then when it gets to 1.010, I add enough sugar to make it go to 1.040, does that mean my OG is now 1.1?

Is there a formula or a calculator online that'll let me do this?

I've read that to make a high alcohol beer or wine, you add fermentable sugar when the hydrometer reading reaches 1.000, so the yeast don't get stressed out by all the sugar being added all at once. So how do you measure the ABV at the end of the fermentation if you can't just subtract the...

Yay! I fixed the problem by replacing the two magnets with one hard drive one. My stirbar is stainless steel, which doesn't rust, so I think I'll be OK. Maybe I'll coat it with silicone rubber. Will that be better or worse for it?

I don't have my camera right now, but yeah, I used those button magnets, glued down onto a small wooden plank, which in turn is glued down onto the fan. The magnet polarity is opposites up. I think the problem is in my stir rod, which is just a little metal bar. I've heard that I can...

So I tried building a stirplate out of 2 neodymium magnets glued down onto a PC cooler fan, but the short metal rod I use for my stir bar just keeps wobbling instead of spinning. What am I doing wrong?
