Is this a digital Hydrometer?
I use one from
walmart hydrometer thermometer combo about $7 and works very good.
dont forget to calibrate your hydrometer first , to make sure is accurate.
To calibrate you will need
1 Medium size ziplock bag
1 empty coffe cup
1/2 cup of salt
1/4 of water
Instructions
put salt in the cup , put water un the cup , put cup inside the ziplock bag and put the hydrometer inside the bag next to the cup .
close the bag and wait 24 hours
if the hydrometer is good it should read 75%
if the hydrometer is higher than you know how much to substract from the reading
EXAMPLE
I put one of my hydrometers in the bag after 24 hours it was 68% than I know is 7 points off
so every time I check my incubator and i seee 40 % I know that is acctually 47%
hope this works
feel free to ask
there is no dumb question
