Here is a little chart I made up when I first got started. All the charts I could find online were in metric or LBS and ounces. I found it a little better for me to go with LBS and percentage.
S.G. % VOL LBS PER GALLON
1.010/ 0.9/ 0.25
1.015/ 1.6/ 0.38
1.020/ 2.3/ 0.5
1.025/ 3.0/ 0.56
1.030/ 3.7/ 0.69
1.035/ 4.4/ 0.81
1.040/ 5.1/ 0.94
1.045/ 5.8/ 1.0
1.050/ 6.5/ 1.13
1.055/ 7.2/ 1.25
1.060/ 7.9/ 1.38
1.065/ 8.6/ 1.44
1.070/ 9.2/ 1.56
1.075/ 9.9/ 1.69
1.080/ 10.6/ 1.81
1.085/ 11.3/ 1.88
1.090/ 12.0/ 2.0
1.095/ 12.7/ 2.13
1.100/ 13.4/ 2.25
1.105/ 14.1/ 2.38
1.110/ 14.9/ 2.44
For instance it I wanted to make a wort with SG of 1.075 ( 9.9 % ABV ) and wanted it to be 13 gallons, you see it would take 1.69 lbs of sugar per gallon. So 13 x 1.69 = 21.97 LBS of sugar. It works for me...Pugi
