Hydrometers are essential tools for any home brewer looking to create a quality wine or beer. These simple devices are used to measure the specific gravity of a liquid, which can indicate the amount of sugar present and how far the fermentation process has progressed. At Wine Online, we offer a wide selection of hydrometers to meet the needs of both beginner and advanced home brewers.

One of the most popular hydrometers we offer is the triple-scale hydrometer. This versatile device measures specific gravity, potential alcohol, and Brix (sugar content). This makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking to create a wide range of wines or beers. The triple-scale hydrometer is easy to use and provides accurate readings, making it an essential tool for any home brewer.

For those looking for a more specialized hydrometer, we also offer models designed specifically for wine or beer. Wine hydrometers typically have a narrower range than beer hydrometers, making them more precise for measuring the sugar content of wine. Beer hydrometers, on the other hand, have a wider range to accommodate the higher sugar content found in beer.

No matter what type of hydrometer you choose, it is important to properly calibrate it before use. This ensures that your readings are accurate and reliable. To calibrate your hydrometer, simply place it in distilled water at 68°F (20°C). The reading should be 1.000 on the specific gravity scale. If it is not, adjust accordingly until it reads 1.000.

In addition to hydrometers, Wine Online also offers a wide range of other home brewing supplies, including fermentation equipment, bottles, and corks. Our team of experts is always available to provide advice and assistance to help you create the perfect wine or beer. Browse our selection today and start brewing your own delicious beverages at home!
