| Nov 9, 2010 at 2:17 | comment | added | Matt Kellogg | Right after I wrote this, I figured that there must be some type of ladle/test tube thing that would work for this. Do you have a link? | |
| Nov 9, 2010 at 2:12 | comment | added | Joe Phillips | We dropped the hydrometer in our first time and used floss to pull it back out. We later read that you should use a thief to pull out some beer to test instead. We ended up buying a rocket launcher (test jar) to put the beer in for testing. Much easier this way! | |
