My homebrew kit came with a hydrometer and a hydrometer tube. What's the best way to remove a little bit of the fermented wort out of the fermenter with the least amount of risk of contamination?
I suppose I could just pop off the lid and scoop some out but I was curious if there was another way. I just need enough to fill the hydrometer tube. Or should I just open the top and put the sanitized hydrometer right in the wort?
