Just remeber, the beer hear is measured by weight, not volume. So 3.85 by weight equals 4.0% by volume. Still not that great but not as bad as it sounds. Just had to represent the home town.

Fits to kegs and the tank just right. Now all I need is a tower or door taps. Too bad those kegs aren't full! :(

Sits on top of a ledge, though you can't tell. Used small bungee and more plastic adhesive hooks to secure tank

Just continued on with tape, hung extra coil from plastic adhesive hook

Used tape to protect the copper sensing wire

Love the new hydrometer

Love this thing, although sometimes if the pressure is too high it squirts an little hose water into your beer.

They still drink it though

LAZT!

Didn't even offer to help

9 gallon pot and a boil proof soon. All that space and I still suffer from the occasional boil over
