Traditional wine production

Hello fellow food scientist.
I am producing a wine locally using mango fruit. The wine is undergoing production process I.e fermentation. I use yeast (saccharomyces cerevisae) as the fermentation agent. I do take the pH on daily basis.
I need your suggestions and opinions on the production.
Is there anyone who knows how the alcohol content can be determined.
Thanks in anticipation

Food Safety Change of Thought

Food Safety Change of Thought

Am getting annoyed each time people stick around and speak about Food safety being each one’s BUSINESS!. It is never everyone’s’ “BUSINESS” please!!!
-The slogan makes food safety sounds as if it is a discipline begging to be commercialized!
-Rather, food safety should be regarded as everyone’s’ RESPONSIBILITY because we all have different roles to play to ensure it is continually achieved. What is your opinion???
