Notes

Notes about dried fruit contribution to gravity

Raisins (oz)


84 cal
17g sugar
1g protein

PPG ~ 27,93
DILUTE PPG ~ 25

Figs (oz)


69,7 cal
13,4g sugar
1,4g starch
0,9g protein

PPG ~ 22,01
DILUTE PPG ~ 20

Dates (oz)


78 cal
19g sugar
1g protein

PPG ~ 31,21
DILUTE PPG ~ 28

Table Sugar (oz) (for reference)


sugar = 28g (== 1 oz)
PPG = 46


Puree fruits and add enough water to make a thin syrup. Boil to make a thicker syrup. I estimate this reduces the PPG (because of the water addition) by about 10%.

Fruits will probably add color, but maybe not as much as dark candi syrup? I'm totally guessing 60L.
