Reliable Proof/Tralles Hydrometer
Posted: Fri Jul 23, 2021 7:26 am
Greetings, all,
Quick question - does anyone have an online source for a reliable proof/tralles hydrometer?
I have one that I used for a while, but after a while thought the paper in it might have slipped. Purchased another, tested them against each other, and found about a 1%/2 proof difference. Not too big a deal. But then I tested both in a commercial vodka, and both read roughly 86 proof in an 80 proof bottle. (Lesson learned - check your meters!)
Anyway, would love a reliable source if anyone has one they've checked and are happy with.
Thanks!
Uncle B
