I've recently done my first ever brew which is a cider that finished fermenting at 1006.
This is the driest cider I have ever drank. It's not unpleasant but mouth puckeringly dry.
Out of interest can any body tell me how much sugar or how to work out how much sugar there is per litre when the fg is 1006?
Hydrometer charts seem to start at 1010.
My friend is a diabetic so it would be handy if I could let him know the exact sugar content when he comes over to try it.
One of my favourite beers, Duvel has an fg of 1002 and is nowhere near as dry as my cider. Is there something I could do next time to make it less dry without adding sugar or sweeteners after the fermentation?
Cheers
