Many were broken earlier but I can't count that far back.

What happened to the count?
I figured at because so many of brewers are completely clumsy that we should be keeping a count of how many hydrometers the average message board breaks over a one year period. If you're like me, I broke mine the first time I used it. Checking account balance: minus $14.95. Ill start. Just search for this thread if, and when, you break one because I think it will be interesting to see how many we actually go through.
Hydrometer Count: 1
166.
I can understand people not reading posts... even skimming through the OP. But how do people seem to totally ignore the TITLE of the thread, the very words that not only compelled them to open it, but that they also had to click on to do it?
Too much homebrew, methinks.
By my count, we were at 188. Plus my first broken hydrometer last night: took my OG, washed the hydrometer and the cylinder, left the hydrometer sitting on top of the dish towel, walked away for 30 seconds then absent-mindedly grabbed the dish towel, flinging hydrometer onto the tile floor, where it obligingly shattered into many many pieces.If you include people who added in their bulk broken hydrometers we are at 182.
