What is the easiest method to measureing your abv% while distilling?

Filling a test tube every few minutes???

Here's some good links:

One helpful addition to the eprouvette that I can recommend would be a thermometer, to measure the temp of the distillate in the eprouvette. Then you could easily do your temp correction and you are good to go.

Cheers,

Is that a plastic tube supplying the distillate to that thing? :(
