It seems every time I wish to take an hydro reading it will cost me a 12 oz. beer. This just feels wrong to me. Alternatives?
You need a smaller test tube and then you need to test gravity much less often.

Who sells these critters?? I thought they were expensive. I haven't seen them in the online brew shops.
As you requested... dont buy these at a HB store. Ebay is the place for them.

Do you guys get accurate readings for FG with your hydrometer? I use mine for OG, and during the brew/sparge to see how I am doing. But I didnt think you could get accurate readings when there is alcohol present. I know there are correction tables, but I was under the impression they were unreliable.
You mean refractometer? I use it all the time for FG. I just plug the appropriate numbers into Beer Tools Pro, and it calculates it. I've cross checked with a hydrometer and the numbers agreed.

Pol, do you have experience with this refractometer?
