🍻 Elevate your homebrew game with precision that speaks volumes!
The FastRack Triple-Scale Hydrometer offers precise measurements across three scales—specific gravity (0.990-1.170), Balling degrees (-3 to +35), and potential alcohol (-2 to +22%)—making it an essential tool for homebrewers of beer, wine, mead, and kombucha. Made in the USA from durable glass and free from mercury and lead, it ensures safe, accurate, and reusable testing. Its color-coded analog display and 9-inch length provide quick, easy-to-read results, empowering brewers to perfect fermentation and achieve consistent, high-quality batches.

Works fine, good value
Hydrometer works great. Just take a reading pre-fermentation and one after and use an online calculator to give you the % Alcohol. It also lets you know if you need to adjust the sugar level before fermentation (alcohol protentional) based upon our yeast tolerance

Easy to use; It's long!
Well made. I like the color separations on the scale; makes it quick and easy to know if you're SG is in the expected range before taking your actual reading. Unlike another reviewer, I actually like knowing that for my use, I will be reading near the upper orange and light blue bands. Cannot attest to its accuracy across its range, as I don't have a calibrated standard to check it with. FWIW, I've compared it to readings from a Brix refractometer, and I'm finding comparable/expected results between the two. The only downside to it is that at 11" long, I have to fill my 100-mL graduated cylinder almost to the very top to get it floating at approx 1.000 SG. I think other hydrometers on here were even longer, so maybe this is good for some people. I've actually switched over to the Brix refractometer so I only need a single drop of liquid for me reading, and I don't have the risk of contaminating my brew by pouring my sample back into my fermentation vessel (despite excellent decontamination and sterilization practices, as a former scientist, it's drilled into you to never pour a test sample back into the original container). Finally, unlike in the product description, it does not require AAAA batteries. (see photo. d'oh)

Unsure accuracy with homemade wine—easy to use
I picked up this hydrometer to check the ABV and gravity of my homemade wine. It’s simple to read and seems sturdy, but I’m not totally sure how accurate the numbers were for my batch. Might be great for beer or other uses, but if you’re making homemade wine, it’s hard to say for certain if this is spot on. Still, it’s easy to use and priced well.

Works great!
Got this item, unpacked it, and promptly tested it out in tap water at the rated temperature for accuracy. It turned in a perfect 1.000 on the scale. Exactly as advertised, it works great for mead/wine/beer making to get the Original Gravity, Final Gravity, calculate the alcohol content, and determine whether or not the ferment is started, going, finished, stuck, etc. I like the 2 part slide case it comes in. Very handy, easy to store it in, and the case being square prevents it from rolling all over and breaking the hydrometer. Just don't push too hard and crush it by accident. Hydrometers are very fragile precision glass instruments, and should be treated with care. DO NOT flick them to get the water/must off, rinse, and gently dry with a towel, or you WILL break it!

Arrived FAST. Works as expected.
Bought another from a different supplier here...even though that one "shipped from amazon" they used Intelcom courier. DAYS LATE!!!. This one arrived ON TIME and days b4 the other one was SUPPOSED to be here. Buyer beware of that "other" company! GL with your order from "theM"! This one is legit. Was packaged PROPERLY/Arrived "intact/not broke" and arrived on tmie/as expected. (Prime customers deserve better that what those other guys do!)

Medición precisa.
No es exatamente la que se muestra en la imagen. Es de colores. Tiene medición precisa y cumple con la función. Recomiendo comprar junto con probeta de 250 ml de acrílico o cristal para facilitar lectura.

Frágil pero muy útil y a buen precio
El vidrio es muy delgado y parece frágil. Sin embargo aún lo tengo. De mucho uso. No sé ha roto ni nada parecido. Funciona a la perfección

Delicate Item
Expect to treat this item with extreme care. It’s easily broken. We’re already on our second purchase. It works like expected though.
