Just got Beersmith Mobile. Ingredient additions

[markus2982]

So, I just bout Beersmith Mobile 2 days ago and I have been putting in my recipes (first time using it. Will probably get the desktop version I the future). I am currently trying to add a cider recipe I have used. I found a good way to add apple juice but I am alittle stuck on the concentrate. I add 3 cans of concentrate to the brew. Does anyone have a good way of adding it? I added the juice as a sugar so was thinking I should do that with the concentrate.

Would I just take a sample of concentrate and measure the SG? Are there standard numbers? Any help/direction is appreciated.

Apple juice concentrate may be to viscous to take a reading. Try diluting it 50-50 and then double your reading.

The can of juice tells you the sugar content and the volume. You can calculate the concentration in g/L and use a table like (http://www.brsquared.org/wine/CalcInfo/HydSugAl.htm) to interpolate your SG. It might not be 100% but its a starting point
