The Sikes Hydrometer is a specialized instrument used primarily for measuring the density of liquids, particularly in the context of the brewing and winemaking industries.

Key Features:

- Design: It typically features a glass body with a weighted bulb at the bottom, which helps it float upright in the liquid being tested.

- Scale: The scale on the hydrometer measures specific gravity, which indicates how much denser a liquid is compared to water. This can help brewmasters and winemakers determine the sugar content of their recipes.

- Accuracy: It's crucial for fermentation processes, as it aids in predicting the alcohol content of the final product.



Will be well packaged and sent via Royal Mail signed for postal service
