I know how to calibrate my thermometers-place into an ice water slurry hit the "Calibrate" button on my digital, manually turn the dial to 32F on my analog.
That was the setup, here's the rub:
How do you "calibrate" a hydrometer? You place it into 60F distilled water. If it reads 1.000, you're good. If it's off, then what? You've got a bum hydrometer. You can't actually "calibrate" it now, can you?
