I ran it super slow, after first allowing it to equilibrate for almost two hours.
For some reason I still only pulled of 92% ABV. Would a few drops of water in the measuring cylinder change the ABV when I am testing it? The cylinder and the Alcometer were not completely dry.
Why do you guys think I am not able to pull 95%+?
