The mass difference between equivalent volumes of must and water is almost entirely due to the dissolved sugar in the must. Since the alcohol in wine is produced by fermentation of the sugar, the Oechsle scale is used to predict the maximal possible alcohol content of the finished wine.

American cooks using British recipes, and vice versa, need to be careful with pints and fluid ounces. A US pint (16 US fluid ounces) is about 16·65 UK fluid ounces or 473 mL, while a UK pint is 20 UK fluid ounces (about 19·21 US fluid ounces or 568 mL): a UK pint is, therefore, about 20% larger than a US pint.
An imperial fluid ounce is 1 ⁄ 20 of an imperial pint, 1 ⁄ 160 of an imperial gallon or exactly 28.4130625 mL. A US customary fluid ounce is 1 ⁄ 16 of a US liquid pint and 1 ⁄ 128 of a US liquid gallon or exactly 29.5735295625 mL, making it about 4.08% larger than the imperial fluid ounce. A US food labeling fluid ounce is exactly 30 mL.
A relative density saccharometer in a sugar solution, 1040 g/L. Baumé scale (Bé°): Occasionally used in France and by U.S. brewers. Oechsle scale (°Oe): Used in Germany, Luxemburg and Switzerland. It is an important part of the German wine classification. Relative density: Used in the United States (although Brix is sometimes used).
Eventually, a hogshead of wine came to be 52.5 imperial gallons (238.669725 L) (63 US gallons), while a hogshead of beer or ale came to be 54 gallons (249.5421 L with the pre-1824 beer and ale gallon, or 245.48886 L with the imperial gallon). A hogshead was also used as unit of measurement for sugar in Louisiana for most of the 19th century.

The wines are much more acidic compared to Sauternes (and similar to Tokaji), [12] are considerably sweeter, have a lower alcoholic strength and are usually not matured in oak barrels. [7] As with most other premium grade dessert wines, Trockenbeerenauslese is to a large extent sold in half bottles of 375 ml. [citation needed]
