where to pick up a slurry hydrometer?

mucmhara

I'm looking to get a slurry hydrometer - I've only found one online and that was for €55, which seemed a bit steep for a simple bit of kit.

Any recommendations? Do the co-ops carry them?

So I am presuming you saw one on a website from a crowd based in Cork, a little tip for you, (presuming you are using google chrome on laptop/computer), you can right click on an image and it will bring up the option to search image with google lens, which I did, and let me to this link, which is the exact same as the one show for sale at 55€. Link is below.

Nice work!

And.... A slurry hydrometer is just a normal hydrometer with a hefty mark-up... revelation!

Does this one have a larger operating range:

You're probably better off getting two different ones for the slurry and the home brew......in case ya mix them up

Reminds me of the time I caught my father taking the digital thermometer out of the first aid press to use on a bullock.
