It's a sickness!
I like the idea of using a very small amount of wort to figure gravity. I HATE my hydrometer and its # 5 in my history of hydrometer buying
. Is a refractometer all that I here it is?
The problem with that logic is "only a fool thinks it's fool proof".abracadabra said:According to all the ardent supporters of hydrometers on this forum the main reason for their continued use is to avoid bottle bombs. Since I keg that's not an issue. Seems to me waiting an extra week would be a way to avoid that if you were unsure. But if nothing else using a refractometer for testing the wort would reduce the chances of breaking your hydormeter by 50% or so.
