It's been a couple years since I bought my own, I guess, but anyway, mine works just fine. It's been great. I can't be happier, and I make a lot of booze with it.
In the glass cylinder, dump it and see what floats. You will see the proof of whatever is in the cylinder floating on the surface.
Using an alcoholometer will allow you to gauge your level of intoxication. It would be more accurate to say they are for clean spirits. At home, I might lick some Bourbon and see what it does.
In theory, an alcoholometer can measure specific gravity. If I understand that correctly, a hydrometer can measure specific gravity.

In the photo are three different instruments 1) an alcoholometer/tralle hydrometer, 2) a specific gravity hydrometer, and 3) a glass testing tube with a A specific gravity hydrometer will not be sent to you! As a result, the alcoholometer appears to work reasonably well, however, I am giving it a 1 star due to a deceptive claim. You can't make that up, it's outright An advertisement. It's time for these companies to STOP taking advantage of people!.
The result of this test measured my 95% lab alcohol at exactly 100%, which was my first indication something was wrong. Afterward, it weighed Five percent) Everclear at seventy nine percent. In order to calculate the exact concentration of a mixture, I needed to know There was a reading of 91 on the hydrometer. Since my two previous measurements of known mixtures indicate this value is high, I calculated the value as 5%. The density of the powder was tested using my lab equipment (graduated cylinders and precise scales) and it was When distillation water is tested, the hydrometer shows exactly zero percent, as to be expected, but at higher alcohol concentrations, the hydrometer indicates readings about 5% above zero percent.
The two meters come in a plastic case so that they don't break. A bumper zone for the alcohol meter was present in the vehicle when tested. My initial testing on hydro seemed to be accurate, but I haven't tested regularly on enough It was pointed out to me that a wash I had already had no weight (that means all the sugar had been There is flimsiness to the base. It doesn't matter whether it's put in a bucket or jar, it will dissolve.
What is shown is not what you get. Upon arrival, the package was damaged. As advertised, item is not what was expected. Make sure you do your research before buying.
Excellent value for two calibrated gauges, the products were delivered as described and were in perfect condition. My heart would jump for joy if I could get them again. My favorite thing to do is play scientist.
Just don't drop a single one of them! If the cylinder is dropped or if the test strips aren't gently placed inside, the testing cylinder will shatter, and test strips can shatter into hundreds of pieces just by being hit There's brittleness to be especially wary of, but it isn't just these kinds that do it, they all do it. BUYING TWO KITS AT ONCE IS A GREAT IDEA AND THIS IS A GREAT STARTER PACK FOR AN INITIAL SET. It's always good to be prepared.
We have no problems with the meter. With vodka, we performed a baseline test. I received 40% of what was claimed on the bottle (as per the label). After maturing tequila, whiskey, and rum, we moved onto the other drinks. This is a recommendation I am highly interested in.
The device was easy to use, and I did not have any difficulty figuring it out. I used it to test a friend's alcohol.
