Ok, so I'm setting up to make some of EdWort's apfelwein. But, being that my circumstances are kinda difficult, I decided to make a few changes.
1. Instead of a 5 gallon batch, I'm making 1 gallon. Being that the juice EdWort suggested seems to be unavailable in Florida, I'm using Winn Dixie's premium apple juice (not from concentrate). It only has some ascorbic acid (vitamin C), but no preservatives.
2. I'm using table sugar instead of dextrose, and here comes my question:
For what I read, I should use 0.8 parts cane sugar for every 1 part dextrose, but that's all I could find, talking about bottle carbing. Is that the same proportion I should use to get to the recommended 1.066 O.G.?
