That's a beer-oriented page, and I don't know how to fill in the Extract boxes for my wines.

I also wouldn't use that page because it doesn't ask what temperature that your hydrometer is calibrated at. Many are calibrated at 60F, but others (including the ones that I prefer) are calibrated at 68F.

If you are referring to what I am trying to accomplish with my post here it is very simple. I was replying to the very first post by murray123 and his question about a hydrometer and the % alcohol using it. I was sharing with others reading this thread the instructions that came with my hydrometer and how by following those instructions how easily and quickly you can determine your final % alcohol in your wine using the SG measurements you make during the wine making process.
Also included is the table you would use for additional minor adjustments you also would make in that calculation that is based on the temperature of your wine.
Julie shared a simple formula to follow that gives you the very same results so using a couple of different methods discussed here you end up with the same required results you are looking for.
