Ok so I finally got the hydometer back out and looked it over and I'm pretty sure.....its OG is 1.064 not 1.076...... So what do you think the FG will end up at? What does that translate to as far as abv?
Also while on the abv subject I saw that austin homebrew supply has this option with all their kits that boosts abv by 1%. Any luck with this or other options? My next batch I wanna boost a NB 1554 clone.
Well I'm focusing on high gravity mainly because they are hard tsupposo get a hold on here in tn. But I love 1554 but want my clone to have a punch. Have any iof you ever tried brewbrothers.biz recipes? They have a double IPA that's supposed to finish out at a whopping 9.3%! And an imperial porter that finishes at around 8 something. Wonder if they are any good
This site has a table for grams of sugar per liter and what that entails for specific gravity. I don't know how much you can add, I'd wait for someone else on that. I do know it can and has been done though, and that it shouldn't change much but the alcohol. I'd probably work through guess and check, taking gravity readings as I go, but tables are a good way to start. That, or you can always pick up a free copy of BrewMate.

They say you can add 10% of your fermentables to come from sucrose without any off flavors. I've never added any plain regular sugar in my years of brewing though.
