So i started a 5 gallon batch of mead about a month ago. I added a lot of honey (im still really new to this) and was sitting at 1.8 for my original reading.
I just took another reading, and now im sitting at 1.45
I followed a formula on a page i will link to find the gravity, but it went something like this
Original reading and subtract your final reading. Take this number and divide it by .00736 and it will give you your alcohol content...
So i did 1.8-1.45=.35 .35/.00736=47.55
So is my mead sitting at 47% abv?
