I got one of those cheap ATC models. My hydrometer gives me a 1.003 FG reading (adjusted for temperature, wort is at 68F). Refractometer is giving me 1.022. OG on this was 1.067. So ABV is about 8.4%. I mashed this lot at too low a temperature due to a measurement flub up with a corresponding high attenuation. So, going forward, I adjust all of my refractometer readings by multiplying by 1.003/1.022 or .98?
