Fairly new to this (4 beers bottled), and been getting some funny things going on on the hydrometer, including FG's of 1012 on a couple of beers done with lager enhancers, etc. But this one's really got me confoozed - an OG of about 1034 on a Coopers' Draught kit with 1kg dextrose and 23 litres of water. There's nothing I could have messed up.
What's the chances my borrowed hydrometer being gammy? I fill the skinny tube it lives in that's marginally wider than the hydrometer, and sit the thing in there till it settles. A few pokes to make sure it's consistent...???
What it boils down to is I'm worried my beer is going to be missing out on the most important part - alcohol content
