From: SMB WEBER Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2017 11:01:13 -0500 I'm hoping against hope that someone may be able to suggest an instrument that can measure ABV (for anyone who misplaces their notebook with initial SG reading and who can't or won't calculate it by distillation). With dread, we are just beginning to learn about labelling requirements and also wonder what the situation is with limits of ABV and cider (or mead) production. (Has it changed recently?) Sorry to go over old territory. Feel free to respond to me directly. Thanks in advance for any replies. SMB Weber ------------------------------ End of Cider Digest #2057 *************************
