Description
Glass Triple Scale Hydrometer
Full colour, triple scale hydrometer with specific gravity, brix and potential alcohol scales. A very versatile instrument, this hydrometer is ideal for beer and wine makers. Individually handcrafted in the USA to NIST traceable standards. Available with or without a built in thermometer. Calibrated to 20°C / 68°F.
Allows you to determine sugar content 3 different ways:
- Brix scale (0-38%): allows you to measure sugar content as a percentage of weight – most useful for winemakers
- Specific Gravity (0.990 – 1.170) scale measures a liquid’s sugar solids as to the density of water – most useful for beer brewers
- Potential Alcohol (0-22%) scale determines the potential alcohol content based on the sugar content of the liquid – most useful for everyone
- Length without Thermometer: 228mm / 9in
- Length with Thermometer: 304mm / 12in
