Cinnamon capping
« on: March 13, 2017, 12:31:34 AM »
Kephra, while doing research on the site I noticed that cinnamon extract both reduces & caps. Don't know how I missed that before. Since I am already using cinnamon extract I see no reason to use gellatin. How much cinnamon extract should I use in a mason jar quart?  Thanks

Here is a starting point:
Recommended Cinnamon extract
Extract = Liters * ppm /10
Ex: 250ml at 80ppm
.250 L * 80 /10 = 2ml

This will probably have to be adjusted because cinnamon extract is not a standardized product.  How much you need will be deterimined by how you make the extract, and the quality of the cinnamon you use, but it should be close.
There is the unknown and the unknowable.  It's a wise man who knows the difference.
