An experiment without measurements is just a guess. That's why this $29 hydrometer set gets added to so many orders here. It's the tool that turns a run into data you can trust. Whatever still you pick, this set lets you see what's actually in the collection jar.
Why People Pick It
Your senses can mislead you. Numbers are more reliable. The Proof & Tralle hydrometer reads both proof and alcohol by volume (ABV). That means you can compare one run with the next, keep notes, and get better over time. Beginners like how easy the scale markings are to read. Experienced distillers like that the instruments are lab-tested for accuracy.
What's in the Set
- Proof & Tralle hydrometer
- Glass test jar
- Protective storage tube
- Easy-to-read scale markings
How It Fits Your Process
Fill the glass test jar with a sample, let the hydrometer float, and read the scale. Write down the number, and you've added another data point to your logbook. Between runs, keep the hydrometer in its protective storage tube. The glass is precise, and you want it to stay that way. It works with any still in our lineup, and it pairs well with a copper proofing parrot if you want to take readings while the run is still going.

Use It Legally
Hydrometers are legal to own and use. Distilling alcohol, however, requires federal (TTB) permits. Follow federal, state, and local law.
