Here's what may be a strange request:
You say: "Fill soda bottle 90% full with luke warm water."
using a ruler, from bottom to top of liquid, how many inches up would 90% be?
I hope to receive my ez cap kit monday or tuesday. i could only find grape and white grapes in 100% welchs. got some cranberry but noticed it is the coctail, only 12% real juice, that would be awful! i'm going to try a different store for something peach. can't wait to get started!
Don't worry about being exact on the 90%- just eyeball it. A little difference either way is irrelevant. The worst thing that can happen is that some fermenation foam comes out the cap and that rinses clean with hot water before you use it on your next batch.
Actually the cranberry cocktail with 12% real juice comes out awesome. It is usually sweetened with corn syrup which imparts a mellow sweetness to the drink.
