Alright I have a really dumb question here.
I use hydrometers to do my readings. My typical procedure is I drop it in, wait for the bubbles/foam if any to reside and take my reading. Generally done within a few minutes.
I recently did a sample and walked away for awhile. When I came back it was reading 10 points higher than before. As in it was 1.020 when I came back it went to 1.030.
Am I to assume with the bubbles or whatever is going on that after time the hydrometer is rising naturally?
Or am I doing something completely wrong?
