Newbie here: Please confirm my SG reading and a quick question on first batch progress
To me it looks like it’s right on the hash mark right above the 1.000 line. That’s .998 correct?
http://s32.photobucket.com/user/Crispyc ... g.jpg.htmlI just started my first batch of Island Mist Strawberry Watermelon White Shiraz. It says after 5 days to check and the reading should be 1.010 or less and to rack at that point. My reading was .998 which is a lot less than I thought it would be after only five days. My first reading on the first day was 1.046 which is what it should have been according to the directions.
Should I be worried about the difference (between 1.010 and .998) after only five days?
The directions now say to let it sit for 10 days and check the reading. When it’s .996, it’s time to mix in the F-pac and other stuff.
Will it really take 10 days to reach .996 (only .002 less then it is now)? Or should I check sooner?
