Overview
A homebrewer who wants one instrument for gravity, sugar and alcohol readings gets a hydrometer with a built-in thermometer, so temperature correction needs no separate probe. Stainless steel balls act as ballast, and a glass test jar holds the sample.
Reading gravity, Brix and potential alcohol from one stem, with the temperature on the same tool, lowers the number of items on the bench on brew day. The seller points to a lead-free and mercury-free build. The analog display depends on reading the stem by eye.
Who it's for
Home wine and beer makers who check progress by hand can use the kit as a complete starter set with its jar and brush. Commercial operators who need digital logging should look elsewhere, as should anyone who needs scales beyond those listed.
Pros and cons
- Three scales on one stem
- Built-in thermometer for correction
- No lead or mercury used
- Includes test jar and cleaning brush
- Glass parts can break
- Analog display read by eye
- Hand wash only
Performance notes
The hydrometer floats in the liquid, and the level at the stem shows density on each scale. The built-in thermometer gives the sample temperature so a reading can be corrected with the supplied conversion table. A test jar of sufficient height lets the instrument float freely, and the response time sets how long to wait before reading.

Frequently asked questions
How do I set up the Brewing America hydrometer kit for a reading?
Fill the glass test jar with the sample, lower the hydrometer in, wait for it to settle, then read the scale and correct with the supplied conversion table.
Does the Brewing America thermo-hydrometer contain mercury?
No. The seller says it has no lead or mercury and uses stainless steel balls in the bottom.
Can the Brewing America hydrometer be used for wine as well as beer?
Yes. The listing names beer and wine, and the potential alcohol scale covers a wide range of both.
