I did not account for the sugar increasing the volume so I should have started with less water. |

I believe the boil temperature is much lower than 212. It seemed to boil right after adding the sugar, but the temperature was only 200. It worked out though, as I had extra water to evaporate. In talking with Rob at Alloy, they only bring it to 180 and do not boil. |

Initial gravity is 1.039 at 71 degrees. Potential alcohol is 4.8% ABV according to the Forgotten Sea website. I also looked at the Seltzer on the Midwest Brewing Supplies website. It says the OG is 1.035 but is 5.5% ABV, but according to the Forgotten Sea website, the max would be 4.0 % ABV for an OG of 1.035.
I talked with Robert and Seltzer usually finishes about 0.992, so that is how you can get a higher ABV than the Potential Alcohol from the IG. |

8 July 2021, 2355 – took sample. 0.998 at 75 degrees. I took the 75 degrees from the cider in the same room as I am fermenting in the big mouth bubbler with no fermometer on it. It is very clear with a few bubbles in the sample cylinder. The initial taste is a bit dank. Very little taste to it. My guess is it will ferment a little more, but I will check it in a couple of days. Rob told me it usually goes to about 0.992, which is how you can get an ABV higher than the Potential Alcohol on the initial reading. |
