Hello All,
Putting together a pilot batch with some Oregon fruit puree. Now, the raspberry provides an sg range of 1.040 - 1.053 on the can. Working backwards from the sugar content in the Nutrition Facts panel I get about 1.036. Not bad. The cherry puree is even farther off - the can provides an sg range of 1.092 - 1.115 but again, working backwards from the sugar content I get an sg of about 1.052.
I ran the same calculations using the Total Carbohydrate entries in the Nutrition Facts panels and the numbers are still way off.
Why the discrepancy? Am I missing something? Just curious.
Thanks in advance!
John
