ABV

[Admiral Toad]

Tried 1st SS classic wash with 8 kg gone well started at 1150 ish and down to 980 in a week
Managed to clear an old sauna room that was nothing but a junk store with knackered heater
Invested 20 quid in a 450 watt oil filled radiator and keeping a steady 24 degrees
Looking on the net at ABV calculators what is the difference between ABV and alcohol by weight ?

I believe it's an old way of measuring the alcohol content, I have only seen it on imported booze from the states, most of the civilised world use ABV along with metric, Celsius, and football where you use your foot.

To get the ABV from the ABW just multiply it by 1-1/4 (1.25), to do the opposite (ABV to ABW) you multiply it by 0.8 (1/1.25).

cheers mate come across a few different calculators on web giving different results

what would the ABV be on 1150 to 980 finish on 26 litres at 25 degrees ?

then I can work out which one is best !
