Just adjust the first 1 for the amount of pure spirit and the 95 for the reported abv as your alcometer shows it.
Post if you need help. Next we'll talk about temp correcting for extra accuracy:-)

I would like to ask a really noob question here please?
I used the wash calculator to determine the approx % of alcohol from the wash and came up with 14.70%.
Start wash was 1.094 and end was .980 which gave me 14.70, when I place some of the wash in my test tube and used the alcoholometer to see if it would give the same reading I was dumbfounded that it showed a reading of about 6-7%, is there a reason for this or can't you use the alcoholometer to measure an un distilled wash.
BTW it was a turbo wash mix ( my last one as I am using the TPW, just didn't want to waste the turbo since I paid for it).
And yes I use an air still for all the purists out there, due to room constraints, but I use the chart that has been circulating done by MOZR (I believe).

The grain suppliers can provide you with the spec sheet for your grain alternatively download one of the many home brewing/beer apps such as brew mate.

OK, is there a rough table or calculator? Was hoping for a little more...
