Testing Equipment


When you add sugar to water, as you do when you make beer, you make it heavier (you increase the gravity). The hydrometer measures how much heavier the wort is than water.

The first reading you take is right before you add the yeast to the wort. This is called the Original Gravity of the wort and tells you what the potential alcohol of the beer will be. Then after fermentation is nearly complete you take the second important reading. Take the hydrometer reading twice about 3 days apart; if it does not change, the beer has finished fermenting (assuming good fermentation conditions) and you may bottle.
