Triple Scale Hydrometer (25 cm | 9.8 in)

Brewing and Winemaking Hydrometer for Specific Gravity, Potential Alcohol and Brix Readings

The Triple Scale Hydrometer is an essential testing tool for homebrewers, winemakers, cider makers, mead makers, and craft beverage hobbyists who need to measure sugar content and track fermentation progress. Measuring 25 cm / 9.8 in, this hydrometer provides three useful scales in one compact testing instrument.

Designed for use with compatible liquid samples, the Triple Scale Hydrometer helps measure specific gravity, potential alcohol, and Brix, making it useful for beer wort, wine must, cider, mead, fruit wine, and other compatible fermentation projects. It helps users better understand starting gravity, fermentation progress, and final dryness before bottling.

Key Features

• Length: 25 cm / 9.8 in
• Triple Scale Design: Provides readings for specific gravity, potential alcohol, and Brix.
• Specific Gravity Testing: Helps track fermentation progress from start to finish.
• Potential Alcohol Scale: Estimates potential alcohol based on sugar content before fermentation.
• Brix Scale: Measures dissolved sugar content in compatible liquids.
• Brewing and Winemaking Friendly: Useful for beer wort, wine must, cider, mead, and fruit wine.
• Easy Floating Design: Designed to float in a compatible test jar for simple readings.
• Fermentation Tracking Tool: Helps compare starting and final readings to monitor progress.
• European-Inspired Testing Tool: Practical design suited for traditional brewing and winemaking workflows.

Common Uses

Use this Triple Scale Hydrometer for homebrewing, winemaking, cider making, mead making, fruit wine, specific gravity testing, Brix measurement, potential alcohol estimation, fermentation tracking, wort testing, must testing, sugar level measurement, and craft beverage production.

Important Use Notes

• Use with a compatible hydrometer test jar.
• Hydrometer test jar is sold separately unless specifically included.
• Sanitize before use if the tested sample may be returned to the batch.
• For best practice, do not return tested liquid to the fermenter to help avoid contamination.
• Take readings at the hydrometer’s calibrated temperature or apply temperature correction if required.
• Handle carefully, as glass can break if dropped or impacted.
• Do not use if cracked, chipped, or damaged.
• Not intended for measuring finished distilled spirits or high-alcohol distillates.
• Use an alcohol hydrometer for distilled spirits and proof testing.
• Clean and dry thoroughly after use before storing.
• Follow proper cleaning, sanitation, and beverage production practices.
