Awsome looking forward to the IPA recipes! Turns out the syrup was at my door when I got home from work today so I added a cup of raspberry and the limeade about 5 mins ago. I will let ya know how it turns out in 4 to 6 weeks.
Slim, I couldnt find Simply Limeade anywhere. But I did Find Newman's Limeade. Do you think that will suffice?

Your ABV will be lower, that's all.
Lets say that in a perfect world you finish at 1.010, just like in the first post.
OG 1.051 = 5.5% ABV
OG 1.041 = 4.1% ABV
I used this...

This may be way off, but I have a spreadsheet, can't remember where I got it from but it can be used to calculate how much your OG "changes" with the addition of honey and fruits.
The spreadsheet needs wgt of "fruit," in this case the Limeade, % sugar, beer volume, and OG before "fruit." Below is what I used for those numbers, whihc I got from the Limeade bottle.
Wgt of fruit = 3.5lbs (bottle states serving size is 8oz with 7 servings in the container), 56oz = 3.5lbs
% Sugar in "fruit" = 12% (28g per serving * 7 servings = 196grams. 196grams = 6.9oz. 6.90z out of 56oz = 12%)
Beer Volume = 5 gal
Original OG = 1.041
Adjusted OG = 1.044
i just kegged this last night, ill let you guys know how it turns out in about a week. i slow force carb, what volumes of co2 is everyone using?
I live in Australia and don't have access to this particular brand of juice. Would I be able to just juice lemons and limes in the appropriate quantity as per the ingredients percentages in the original juice?
