Dilution Formula
Dilution/gravity calculations including evaporation calculations in the brewhouse
are based on a simple formula using volumes in hls and Specific Gravity (SG):
Beg Volume * Beg SG=End Volume * End SG
(The SG numbers are SG Points, i.e. 1.060 SG = 60 gravity pts, 1.045 = 45 SG pts.)
By re-arranging this formula, we find:
Beg Volume=End Volume * End SG / Beg SG
Beg SG=End Volume * End SG / Beg Volume
End SG=Beg Volume * Beg SG / End Volume
End Volume=Beg Volume * Beg SG / End SG
Degree of fermentation:
The apparent degree of fermentation (ADF) is the value, you read using the
saccharometer. The ADF is approx. = 1.24 * real degree of fermentation (RDF).

Pasteurisation:
One Pasteurisation Unit (PU) is defined as the heat received by 60oC in 1 minute. The
precise connection is defined as:
PU = time * 1.393 (Temp. 60)
Time is measured in seconds/60
Temperature is measured in C.
In stead of using this formula, you may simply use this diagramme:
