A fermenting wine is now recorded as density only — SG or °Oe. °Brix is gone from the form, because a refractometer stops reading true the moment there is alcohol in the vessel. And °Oe may go below zero: a dry wine settles near -10 °Oe, and the app finally takes that number.

A fermentation reading is entered in SG or °Oe, no longer in °Brix. °Brix and °KMW are read off a refractometer, and a refractometer measures how the liquid bends light — alcohol bends it differently from water, so from the first day of the ferment it shows you a must that no longer exists. Everything on the fermentation curve is density, off a hydrometer or a spindle. A reading you entered in °Brix before this changed stays exactly as you measured it.
°Oe may now go below zero. °Oe is just another way of writing density, so a wine that ferments all its sugar out falls past zero — a must of 92 °Oe settles dry near -10 °Oe. The form used to refuse such a reading and push you onto SG; now it takes it, the keyboard has a minus on it, and a correction to a negative reading saves instead of being rejected.
The note under the fermentation curve now says where the number comes from: density off a hydrometer or a spindle, not a refractometer reading, and that it goes below zero on a dry wine. The same note sits under the °Oe entry field.
A word hint in a numeric field reads properly again. "Not on the report" on the laboratory report form was drawn in the large figure font and wrapped to two clipped lines in a half-width field; it now sits on one line.
