beer hydrometer hobby 0-20% extract +thermometer

For measuring the sugar content and temperature of beer wort. Length: 22.5 cm, Fits min. 100 ml measuring cylinder. A hydrometer or densimeter helps measure the density of a liquid. When brewing beer, this wort is used to measure the sugar content. A hydrometer is a float with a scale on top. To measure the reading of the hydrometer, the wort is separated into a measuring cylinder, in which the hydrometer is placed to swell. Readings can be read from the water line of the WortHydrometer. According to how deep the hydrometer sinks into the liquid, the reading also depends. For example, the density of pure water is 1.000, but if there are sugars mixed into the water, the reading rises above 1.000. However, the density of alcohol is lower than that of pure water, the density of absolute alcohol is 0.789. Therefore, the initial density of the wort can be, for example, 1.050 and the final density 1.010. The alcohol content in beer is determined by how much sugar has been fermented into ethanol, i.e. the difference between the initial density and the final density is measured. Alcoholic content (ABV) depends on initial density (OG) and final density (FG) as follows: ABV = (OG – FG) * 131.25. So if OG=1.050 and FG= 1.010, then ABV= (1.050 – 1.010) * 131.25= 0.04 * 131.25=5.25%. You can use a calculator to make measurements easier. The hydrometer reading is set to measure in water at 20ºC. Otherwise, you can use a temperature matching calculator to get the correct reading. In general, hobby brewers use the specific gravity scale, which reads as 1.0xx, to measure density, but the Plato scale, which is measured in degrees, is also often used. Before taking a hydrometer reading, observe what scales are on your hydrometer. The strength of wine is measured as follows: For example, the sugar content of wine before fermentation is +80 and -5 after. The formula for alcohol content is: 85:7.5 =11.33%. The starting and ending sugar content must be added together and divided by 7.5. ​What is a densimeter and why is it necessary? A hydrometer or densimeter is a gadget that measures the density of a liquid. This wort is used to measure the sugar content when brewing beer and beer. A densimeter is essentially a float with a scale on it. The scale shows how deep it sinks into the liquid and the reading is read from the water line. The result shows the ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of pure water. The density of pure water when measured with a hydrometer is always 1.000. If sugars or other soluble substances (for example, salt) are mixed into the water, we will get a reading higher than 1,000. However, the density of alcohol is generally lower than the density of pure water, so the reading of an alcohol-rich liquid is below 1,000. The readings of the densimeter are set for measurement in a liquid at 15 degrees (Celsius), so it is worth making sure that the liquid is more or less at this temperature at the time of measurement. A simple densimeter can be obtained from a store at a price of 5-15 euros. Densimeters are available with one and three scales. A single-scale densimeter only shows specific gravity. In addition to the specific gravity, the three-scale densimeter shows the sugar content in g/l and the potential alcohol content in the finished drink. For example, in the case of flounder, the densimeter reading should remain at the limit of 1020 on the specific gravity scale..
