Okay, I checked my hydrometer today in 80* water (it's summer in Texas) and the reading is .996, which the adjustment for 80* should be .002, right? Is my hydrometer shot, or can I just adjust my readings by .004?
On that point, the English ale I'm fermenting read 1.012 with this hydrometer.
So, is the gravity of the beer 1.008, or 1.016? Normally my brain would be able to get this, but a summer cold has turned it into mush! Thanks.
