Brewed the splash of brut ipa kit from malt Miller went from 1.056 to 0.998, according to Brewers friend that's 104% attenuation and 0 calories should help the beer belly a little.

I might be persuaded that the first number is a reasonable estimate.
Could you do an experiment with the hydrometer? At 20C it should read 1.000. If it does not, that might explain much.

That seems like a load of tosh to me. It actually states "Calories from alcohol are 'empty calories', they have no nutritional value. " So just what is that supposed to mean? Bear in mind that I got my degree in Animal Physiology and Nutrition and I have no idea what that means.
By the way, that was back in the 70s and in agriculture at least they hadn't been using calories as a meaningful guide to the nutritional value of food for at least 30 years.
You could for example eat 2,500 calories of bran every day as your food source and you will literally starve to death.
So if your body converts alcohol into something it can burn then it does have nutritional value as long as the energy required for the conversion is less than the energy you end up with.
It's correct Slid I know how to read my hydrometer it actually shows 1.000 but with water @20 it's 2 points high so I have to knock of 2 points all the time,

It is a rubbish term. It just means that it isn't accompanied by vitamins, minerals, fibre - that kind of gunk. Sugar is called the same thing because of it and it makes it sound like it's got no calories.That seems like a load of tosh to me.

The thing I don't understand is that they measure calories in food by the time it takes to burn..with fire...who made that up?

A bloke called Joule. ............
Fifty? Optimist...Alcohol simply can't be as fattening as they claim or we'd all be fifty stone within the year. Fact.
