hist-brewing: Help with brix

[Barclay, Peter C. MAJ]

Greeting from Terafan,

	Yes, it all comes down to that.  

As Master Gerald pointed out, all the numbers work out the same and come
down to SUGAR = .78 HONEY 
As noted, this is because 22% of honey is water.   


If you want to find honey, then HONEY = SUGAR / .78   

(In the question asked  H = 5.25 / .78) which is 6.73

respectfully, 

                     Terafan

Brewer and probably other things I can't think of...

So it all comes down to "Honey is 78% sugar."--am I right?
