I have found several on the net, do a search for hydrometer correction chart. The problem I ran into is that several are quite a bit different....
I worried about that at first, then after a while, it really doesn't matter that much...you're only adjusting a tiny bit. Unless you're doing precise alochon content calculations, it's not worth the time.
What's important is that you know where you started and where you ended, the difference is what tells you what is happening, and the final reading is good to have.
There are quite a few people that don't use them at all.
