Hydrometer Triple Scale
Triple Scale Glass Hydrometer
Accurate, easy-to-read hydrometer with three handy scales. Track Specific Gravity, Brix, and Potential Alcohol so you can follow fermentation and hit your target ABV.
Why homebrewers like it:
• One tool that covers OG, FG, and quick ABV estimates
• Crisp, high-contrast paper scale for fast readings
• Calibrated at 20 °C, perfect for most Canadian brew rooms
• Stable float that settles quickly in the test jar
Key features:
• Triple scale: Specific Gravity, Brix, Potential Alcohol
• SG range: 0.990 to 1.170, marked in 0.001 increments
• Brix range: 0 to 35 °Bx
• Potential Alcohol range: 0 to 20 percent
• Calibrated at 20 °C
• Glass construction for accuracy
How to use:
-
Fill a clean test jar with enough wort or wine to float the hydrometer.
-
Check temperature. If it is not 20 °C, apply a temperature correction.
-
Lower the hydrometer gently and give it a small spin to shed bubbles.
-
Read at the bottom of the meniscus. Record SG, or use the Brix or Potential Alcohol scales.
-
ABV shortcut: ABV % ≈ (OG − FG) × 131.25.
Example: OG 1.050, FG 1.010 → ABV ≈ (1.050 − 1.010) × 131.25 = 5.25 percent.
