The specific gravity of alcohol 190, which is pure ethanol, is typically around 0.8161 at 20 degrees Celsius. This value indicates that ethanol is less dense than water at that temperature, as the specific gravity of water is 1.

What is the highest alcohol content?

The highest alcohol content physically possible is 100% abv (alcohol by volume) although this is not suitable for human consumption. The highest alcohol content for a distilled beverage is around 190 proof or 95% abv for grain spirits such as Everclear or Gem Clear. These highly flammable beverages are most often mixed with non-alcoholic drinks such as fruit juices, or in a large communal punch bowl as in "jungle juice." As most liquor is between 40 and 50% abv, the ingestion of such spirits often causes extreme intoxication.


What instrument measures alcohol content?

Alcohol lowers the specific gravity of a solution which contains it. If the solution is almost pure water and alcohol, you can determine the specific gravity with a hydrometer, and look up the % alcohol on a table,. Because many alcoholic beverages contain other ingredients which alter specific gravity (such a sugars which RAISE the specific gravity) the alcohol must be purified before taking the specific gravity. This requires distillation with some specific pieces of apparatus. For instance, 100 mL of beverage is measured into a boiler. 50 mL of water is added as a surplus water vehicle. Add a couple of boiling chips. Fit with a condensor cooled with running cold water. Distill off slowly into a (preweighed) 100 mL volumetric flask (fitted with a glass funnel). When you have almost filled the volumetric flask with distillate, remove from the still, adjust the temperature to 4 C, and add sufficient distilled water to equal exactly 100.00 mL. You weigh the filled flask and subtract the weight of the empty flask. Since water at 4 C weighs exactly 100.00 g, the weight of the distillate divided by 100 yields the specific gravity. (Alternatively, pour a little of the 100.00 mL of the distilate into a narrow glass, and drop a hydrometer into it. Read the specific gravity off of the stem. Now go find the table to see what % alcohol it is. PREVIOUS ANSWER: Alcohol content is measured by finding the specific gravity of the brew or whatever before and after fermentation. The instrument is called a hydrometer.


How can check alcohol purity?

Alcohol purity can be checked using a hydrometer to measure the specific gravity of the alcohol. Another method is gas chromatography, which can analyze the components of the alcohol to determine its purity. Additionally, distillation techniques can be used to separate impurities from the alcohol.


What is the percent of alcohol in everclear?

It is available in 190 proof (95% alcohol) and 151 proof (75.5% alcohol) varieties.


How do you calculate the alcohol percentage in home brew beer when you do not have an initial specific gravity reading?

Ok, so you forgot to take an original gravity reading (O.G.). Hopefully you brewed with a kit or a recipe that tells you the anticipated O.G. Get that number and then when your homebrew finishes get the final gravity reading (F.G.). Calculate the alcohol percentage with this calculation: % ABV = ((anticipated O.G.) - (F.G.)) / (specific gravity of ethanol) % ABV = ((anticipated O.G.) - (F.G.)) / 0.789
