So I took a final gravity reading tonight before I bottled my Bourbon Vanilla Porter with both a refractometer and a hydrometer. I got vastly different results...
OG 1.085
FG with refractometer 1.037
FG with hydrometer 1.023
The refractometer has ATC and I compensated the hydrometer reading for temperature as well.
I've read that hydrometer readings tend to be more accurate. The difference is rather large in this case. Thoughts?
