It measures specific gravity (0.980-1.120), sugar content (0-270 g/L), and potential alcohol (0-16%), enabling brewers to monitor fermentation progress accurately. Packaged in a protective plastic tube, it fits a 100ml sample jar and helps determine the perfect time to bottle or keg, ensuring consistent, high-quality brews. ## Description From the manufacturer Stevenson Reeves Triple Scale Hydrometer (S1017) - for Home Brewing Scales on this hydrometer 0.980 to 1.100 Specific Gravity at 20°C 0 to 270 grams of sugar per litre 0-16% Potential Alcohol scale (assumes all sugars are fermented) Stevenson Reeves hydrometers are specifically designed for home wine and beer making and come packed in strong plastic tubes which can be used for storage and protection. This hydrometer is 23cm long to float in a 100ml sample trial jar (not included). Coloured bands indicate where to start and finish beers. Full instructions available to download (see User Guide). This Hydrometer Will Show You The starting gravity and sugar content of your beer wort. The progress of fermentation, by gradually sinking as the sugar turns into alcohol. Whether fermentation has stopped too early. When to bottle or keg. Take readings at the beginning and end of fermentation to determine alcohol content. How to use your hydrometer Make sure the hydrometer and trial jar are clean. The jar should be placed on a level surface so that the hydrometer will float straight. Place a sample of the liquid to be tested into the tube. You need to use enough liquid so that the hydrometer will float. Lower the hydrometer carefully into the jar. Spin to remove clinging bubbles. Make sure the hydrometer is floating straight and that the stem is not touching the sides. When the hydrometer is steady, read at the bottom surface of the liquid. Tips for using a hydrometer Take any samples using a sterile sampler. Do not return test samples to the fermentation vessel. Do not bottle the drink unless the specific gravity has fallen to the expected value (see recipe or kit instructions). If you use a glass trial jar, take care as you lower the hydrometer into it. Keep records of your hydrometer readings. You will need to know both the starting and finishing specific gravity readings to calculate % alcohol content. Clean the hydrometer after use, and store in the included protective tube.

Paper inside is loose so can shift and give different readings. Could be accurate for sugar content but certainly not for potential alcohol content. First one I ordered arrived broken, they arent wrapped in any protection other than a plastic tube. 2nd one arrived in one piece with no lid. ## Frequently Bought Together - Stevenson Reeves Triple Scale Hydrometer (S1017) - For Home Brewing - Youngs Campden Tablets 50 pk (Sodium Metabisulphate) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/139515973-triple-scale-hydrometer-s1017-for-home-brewing](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/139515973-triple-scale-hydrometer-s1017-for-home-brewing) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-29*
