In case you don't already know this, don't use confectioner's sugar for
wine-making. It contains some form of starch in addition to the sugar, which
can create hazes and other problems.

Default Island Mist question?

I don't use it in my wine making, just as an example. Well, I used it
1 time in an orange wine when I had everything set up only to discover
I had about 1/4 pound of sugar in the house. But I had about 10
pounds of confectioner's sugar. Worked pretty well in that. Didn't
leave any haze or other problems.

Thanks for the info on the sugar and scales, though.
