how to calculate yield

Post by distillusion »

Hello everyone!

I am interested in how one determines the product yield of a run using a pot still. Let's say I am interested in doing a brandy from 4 litters of a red wine I made. Is there a standard chart, or standard calculation to use to figure out "x amount of product gives y amount result?" Is it similar for all distillations (I am thinking no)? Any help, or pointers in the right direction is much appreciated!

Thank you.

p.s. The search option seems to work against me, thus I posted my question.
