Hydrometer - Wine (& Beer)

We stock two models, both of which are supplied in protective tubes, and come with a simple instruction sheet.
If you want one for beer and cider only, I would suggest that you go for the Beer only model.
This has all the information you need, without the banding for wine which you don't!
For Wine and liqueurs, you will need the Wine and Beer model, and you will find having a trial jar a real advantage.
Beer only Range 0.990 to 1.100
Wine and Beer Range 0.990 to 1.120
The length overall of both models is 23cm.
