Gordon,
Have you put this tip into practice? If so how did it turn out?
By doing it this way, you OG would not be representative, how would you go about measuring the ABV?
Its very easy to calculate how much a lb. of sugar adds to a particular volume of beer. John Palmer for instance has a guide on his site that tells you exactly how much 1 lb. will add to 5 gal. of wort. Extrapolate from there, or do the calculations yourself, to however much you add and to your existing volume.
My addition added just over 10 points.
