How It Works

Calculate expected wine alcohol percentage from grape must Brix or potential alcohol, and determine chaptalization (sugar addition) needed to reach target ABV

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Grape must Brix or potential alcohol — The grape must brix or potential alcohol recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Determine chaptalization needed — The determine chaptalization needed recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the wine sugar to alcohol result against the clinical thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the grape must Brix or potential alcohol, determine chaptalization needed for the patient or scenario you are assessing. Calculate expected wine alcohol percentage from grape must Brix or potential alcohol, and determine chaptalization (sugar addition) needed to reach target ABV. Use the wine sugar to alcohol result to inform your clinical assessment.
