can someone refresh my memory

[OHIOSTEVE]

I am getting ready to sweeten and bottle some wine I have had setting for at least a year and a half... I havent made anyt in a while and cannot remember how much a pound of sugar raises the gravity in 5 gallons.. I THINK it is 0.09 but want to be sure.

 

[OHIOSTEVE]

sorry 0.009

 

[Verratti]

would end up to around 1,004 I think not sure.

My rule of thumb is that 1 lb of sugar raises the gravity of 1 gallon by 1.040 , so it will raise the gravity of five gallons by 1.008 (040/5)
