Vinegar run

Post by rug »

Hi. What % do you use for winegar run? I have concentrated vinegar, 35%, but I guess I should add quite a lot of water? T.ex 1 unit 35% and 5 units water`?
Or?

I usually get the store bought distilled white vinegar and mix 1-1 ratio . Someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe store bought vinegar is like 90% water and 10% acid. So if yours is 35% , might try mixing it 3-1 ratio . 3 gallons water to 1 gallon vinegar . Perhaps even 4-1 ratio.
