Unfortunately there is not a straightforward conversion between Degrees API, as a measure of specific gravity, and other measures of density. This involves a reciprocal set of units and an offset. An incorrect conversion is included in earlier versions of Calc – please do not use the deg API or deg Baume conversions in Calc versions 5.3 or earlier. In later versions of Calc it has been removed.
