Not as pictured

I have bought this before and got what was pictured - it's my favorite hydrometer - easy to read etc. This time I have the OPPOSITE! Came with a plain white dial and a fragile little glass bulb. In addition, the storage is in a transparent tube and not in a telescopic tube as in the photo. Problem with that.

works well and I like the colors

I have a pair of hydrometers but they are fragile and can break easily (I have) so I bought this one with color differentiation. The colors help a lot. I usually wear glasses.

This makes a quick reading easier as 0.990 and below are displayed in black on white. 0.990-1.000 are highlighted in blue. This is a color change on the glass so you can remember what each color represents. For example, 1060-1092 is…

Pros
  • Hydrometers
Cons

Dimensions! Best in Substance Analysis Instrument

The length of the hydrometer is about 10 3/4 inches, and the widest part of the hydrometer is about 0.6 inches (the circumference was 2 inches). You'll probably need at least a 12-inch vial. It's weighted with lead shot held down by something like rubber. It will test all beers and wines and show the normal ranges for each (normal wine specific gravity, dessert wine, beer and their respective specific gravity) on paper in the test tube. colored paper in the tube, you still need to look very…
