Calibrating hydrometer

[debilorrah]

I need to do this and I found the recipe for the salt, however I cannot find anywhere THOROUGH instructions.

Mix the salt and the water - put it in a cup? Baggie?

Hydrometer - in a baggie or not?


Thanks! I find incomplete posts all over the place.

This may be more info than you want, but it's the most complete explanation of hygrometer calibration that I've found.

I used only the table salt (sodium chloride) solution myself. The rest were interesting though.
