Ok, just wanted to sense check something.
I'm thinking of building a set-up as explained on this page:
http://www.themadfermentationist.com/2009/07/testing-alcohol-content-of-ice.html
It's just that I don't want to spend all the $ buying a density meter. Therefore I thought it should be possible to weigh the final product and use this conversion table:

This gives w/w, which can then be converted to w/v using the conversion table below.

Just wanted to sense-check this method before I invest. Anyone any experience with anything similar? Why would or wouldn't this method work? Any additional tips?
Thanks!
