Hydrometers

[jeg]

Again I am back to this salinity issue. The cheap bobbing glass hydrometer is showing around 1.022-1.024. The plastic fill-up type is showing 1.026-1.027. How am I ever going to be certain what is right?

use it with a refractometer...take it to ur lfs and ask them to test it..then figure out what urs tests at. that way u'll know the actual number

I have found that the plastic fill up type are usualy very accurate if used properly and cleaned after every use.
