Should I buy a tilt Bluetooth hydrometer? And does anyone else have one ? I keep seeing good reviews but it seems expensive to spend the money
Ok , Thanks for the response, I am new to home brew and having trouble reading the hydrometer, I should do more research on my end
Agree with that. Theres probably a few pieces of equipment that will help you more than a tilt.I use one in almost every batch and like the info it provides. I don't trust the absolute reading the Tilt provides, as usually there's krausen caked on it throwing the reading off. If I want an accurate reading a hydrometer is still my go-to. However it is nice to see the rate of change of fermentation as you can tell when the OG stops moving (when fermentation done). Internal temperature of the wort is nice to have as well, I was surprised at how much some yeast can make the wort temperature climb above ambient temperatures when I first starting using the Tilt.
IMO if you're new to brewing there's better places to invest in equipment than a Tilt. If you're good on equipment and looking to spend a bit on a nice toy the Tilt is for you
I like mine for the fact I dont have to open the fermenter to to take gravity readings and it works great for see if fermentation is done early iv had a couple brews be done a week.
