This hydro jar is awesome - wish I would have bought it years ago! I hesitated because it was glass but it seems fairly sturdy. The nicest thing about this is it's fairly narrow and you need a much smaller amount of beer than the plastic jars. |

The new T09 hydrometer is longer than the older models, causing it to bottom out before reaching 1.000
My opinion is a Final Gravity hydrometer and jar should be able to read a bit below 1.000 Why? Well, it's nice to be able to calibrate using distilled water and if it bottoms out, you're SOL without another hydrometer jar. Also, I'm getting too much attenuation. I don't know why but it would be nice to know how much without resorting to other tools.
That said, I really like it when it works. The close fit dampens movement and increases accuracy. With care. So it should be taller.
I'll buy a taller one if they get one. |

The diameter is too small, and it isn't tall enough.
When taking an original gravity reading, you are almost certainly going to get trub and sediments. Those particles certainly have a different specific gravity than the wort. How do we know that the hydrometer isn't being jived by a blanket of crud at the bottom? |

The first time I took this out of the padded box I made for it and poured my sample in, I got wet feet. Hmmm, how could this be? The answer was at the bottom of the storage case where a glass disc sat, perfectly fitting one end of my new glass tube. This jar is probably a nice tool, but rather than mess about I bought your plastic hydrometer jar, not as cool but it works. |
