I purchased a hydrometer that gives an alcohol reading. Not specific gravity. The only problem is that it is good for above 10% stuff. But, just to let you know it is available.
I use bottled water as my well has too much iron and the PH is through the roof. 8 I think. The bottled water has a PH around 5 -5.5, and this stays within range throughout. Don't even need to check any more.
