Sugar to Specific Gravity Ratio
The following data is from person experimentation
your mileage may vary, but I hope not by much. . .
It takes 1/2 teaspoon (or 2.5 ml) of cane sugar to change 100 ml of water (must) from 1.000 to 1.010 S.G. (.010)
That in mind, it would then take 6 TableSpoons (.375 Cup) to raise a gallon of must .010 or 30 TableSpoons (1.875 Cups) to raise a standard 5 gallon batch .010
It takes 1 1/4 teaspoons (6.25 ml) of corn sugar to change 100 ml of water (must) from 1.000 to 1.010 S.G. (.010)
So it would take 15 TableSpoons (0.93 Cup) to raise a gallon of must .010 or 75 TableSpoons (4.7 Cups) to raise a standard 5 gallon batch .010
Now for the odd one in the experiment so far. . .
It took 1/2 teaspoon (same as cane sugar) of HONEY to raise 100 ml of water (must) from 1.000 to 1.010 S.G. (.010)
But at 1 teaspoon, instead of seeing .020, the reading was undoubtably .022. and the variances grew from there. I plan to carry this experiment out further soon.
Watch for it here!
