It works only on pure, sugar-free alcohol-water mixtures, commonly used for ABV testing, dilution, and quality control of home-distilled spirits at 20\ufffd\ufffdC. Alcohol Meter Hydrometer 0-100%<\/p>\n<p> Key Uses and Functions<br \/> Measuring Distilled Alcohol Strength: Accurately determines the proof or alcohol percentage of spirits directly from the still.<br \/> Dilution Planning: Essential for measuring high-proof alcohol before adding water to dilute it to a standard, drinkable bottling strength (e.g., 40-50% ABV).<br \/> Monitoring Distillation Efficiency: Helps distillers determine when the alcohol in the wash has been fully extracted, as the device is used to check the output of a still.<\/p>\n<p>Important Usage Guidelines <br \/> No Sugar\/Additive Rule: Only use on pure distillate. The presence of sugar (e.g., in liqueurs, wine, or unfermented mash) increases the density, giving a false, lower ABV reading.<br \/> Temperature Sensitivity: Most are calibrated for use at (20^{circ }text{C}) ((68^{circ }text{F})). Liquids colder or hotter than this will yield inaccurate readings.<br \/> Reading Mechanism: The device is floated in a tall, narrow test jar, and the reading is taken at the bottom of the meniscus (the surface of the liquid).<br \/> Calibration: The instrument, often called a Gay-Lussac hyd<br \/> rometer, is calibrated to the density of pure ethanol, not water. <\/p>\n<p>Alcoholmeter Hydrometer 0-100%<\/p>\n<p>High quality hydrometer alcoholmeter For Home Brew Alcohol Testing<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alcohol Testing, 0-100%<\/li>\n<li>It can measure specific gravity, potential alcohol<\/li>\n<li>Regardless of which scale you choose, this hydrometer offers you the tool you need to assess the density of your worth and ultimately the strength of your beer or wine.<\/li>\n<li>It can be used on home brewing and making juice.<\/li>\n<li>A must have home brew equipment for alcohol testing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Alcohol Meter Hydrometer 0-100%<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alcoholmeter Hydrometer 0-100%<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"content-type":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[11617],"product_tag":[23364],"class_list":{"0":"post-83546","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","5":"product_cat-laboratory-glassware-hydrometers","6":"product_tag-alcohol-meter-hydrometer-0-100","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"purchasable","12":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/83546","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=83546"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=83546"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=83546"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqpharmaceuticalsupplies.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=83546"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
