Hi,

I am planning to bottle sparkingling apple cider. I will let the
fermentation go to completion and then add the cider with unfermented juice
for sugar into the bottle and then cap the bottle.

I want the carbonation to be slightly less than for beer which calls for
adding 1 cup corn sugar per 5 gallons of fermented product at bottling time.

A hydrometer will indicate % sugar by weight in unfermented juice. How do I
convert that to "cups of corn sugar"?


Thanks
