Sec. 30.42  Denatured spirits.

    The quantity, in gallons, of any lot or package of specially 
denatured spirits may be determined by weighing it and then dividing its 
weight by the weight per gallon of the formula concerned, as given in 
the appropriate tables in subpart H of 27 CFR Part 21. In the case of 
completely denatured spirits, the gallonage of any lot or package may be 
ascertained by determining its weight and apparent proof (hydrometer 
indication, corrected to 60 degrees Fahrenheit) and then multiplying the 
weight of the wine gallons per pound factor shown in Table 4 for the 
(apparent) proof.
