Very interesting and yes maybe I am reading it wrong. I was thinking you would measure the %ABV with it. But this is done through a equation with the 1st and 2nd reading. I missed the boat on that one.
So i have been fermenting for 1.5 weeks and i have taken a reading with a beer and wine hyrometer. It says i have a density of 1.005 and 0 maybe 0.1 % alcohol. I have some yeast on top of the batch and a few bubble islands. Should i scrap this batch or wait the 3 weeks to ferment and check again...
The kit instructions say ferment for in keg for 3 weeks then bottle. But the instructions on the can (Oktoberfest Lager) say ferment 1 week in the keg, add sugar in bottles, fill, let sit for 2 weeks.
Umm what? What do i listen to?
Thx
