OK - I've brewed 4 beers (partial extract kits, all Brewer's Best), and I'm using the hydrometer that came with my Brewer's Best starter's kit. I can't seem to get a reading I trust, be it bubbles, the hydro sticking to the sides of my thief, etc. I am intensely interested in the details and actually knowing what is happening, so if anyone has any tips on how to take readings that are reliable, please fill me in. I'd definitely appreciate it . Am I the only one who struggles with this?
