    I have seen these so many times but never knew what it was or how to use it! I have officially learned something new today 🤩

    I have a hydrometer just like yours...but I never use it. LOL. When I started brewing, the guy who taught me just told me to wing it, and that's what I always do. I just drink a 6 pack, and see how drunk I get, to estimate the AVB. hahahaha

    Hi, could you please tell me which hydrometer is the best? Glass or plastic?

    • @MoonshineHowTo
      @MoonshineHowTo  3 роки тому +2

      Glass is best, easier to sanitize, better to see.

      @@MoonshineHowTo Ok, thanks...

      For specific gravity, we love using the refractor, but we also have a glass SG hydrometer on hand at all times.

    so a little confused I have an apple mash with a reading of 1.070 and abv of 9. Is this good to run? Your video says don't run til 0.990. Did I miss something?

    • @raymondminer8867

      1.07 is what your starting gravity reading at the beginning of the fermentation process.
      0.999 is what your reading should be when ready to put in your pot.

    I put my test mash back in I pretty much messed up huhn?

      No it usually won’t hurt but it is a good practice not to. Enjoy and have fun no worries

    You are talking about using this meter to know exactly when a moonshine mash is ready for running for the most outcome. Correct

    How do I calculate for over 60 f

      There is a a chart that comes with your hydrometer. It is not critical it is to get you in the ballpark
