Analysis methods

The Practical Guide to Alcoholometry includes charts, white pages (Table VII b) and yellow pages (Table XI bb), used to determine the alcohol level at 20°C and calculate the volume of pure alcohol.
This article presents the principle of use of these charts and the differences between these 2 tables. It shows that the volume of pure alcohol calculated with the yellow pages is more approximate. It also explains how to convert at 20°C, a volume measurement when the alcohol level measurement is obtained directly at 20°C.
