Review the formulation instructions.

The amount of sugar added does not always represent Brix degrees, since the sugar present in the fruit (in the case of fruit sorbets or others where the ingredient may contain sugar) needs to be considered to determine the sorbet’s sugar density.
A batch freezer is recommended for this method because of the presence of stabilizers.
Always keep in mind the following recommended maximum and minimum percentages of ingredients in order to have a well-balanced recipe (they apply to any sorbet base).
