Every hydrometer I ever bought had the thermometer built in. What do
auto mechanics know that brewers don't?

Nothing that I know of. You do need to know the temperature of the
wort at all times, and only need to take a beginning gravity and
ending gravity reading, therefore you don't need the hydrometer in the
fermenter all of the time. I use one of those thermometers that change
color at whatever temp. it is. They just stick to the side of the
fermenter.


Ok, you need a separate thermometer. One in a hydro is handy since you
have to somehow correct the density for temperature.

Yep, the hydrometers for brewing use all come with a card or paper
telling you how to adjust for a given temperature.


I read that there is special yeast for distillers that produces 25%. I
thought 14% was the death number. Home stills were recently legalized
in New Zealand. Hate to live there. It is the last stop on the way to
the actual ends of the earth, closest airport. Nice stills for sale on
the internet.
