Hydrometer
An aid to measure the specific gravity (liquid thickness or viscosity) at various stages of the winemaking process. It is a glass instrument that floats in the must or wine and gives readings of sugar content.

Hydrometer: An inexpensive and widely available analytical device that measures the specific gravity (relative density) of a solution. Very useful to measure the amount of sugar (in Balling or degrees Brix) in a juice or wine.
Hydrometer
An instrument used to measure the degrees Brix of grape juice during ripening, harvest or fermentation.

Prepare the wine must in a gallon container according to your favorite recipe.
Hydrometer
Closely resembles a thermometer and is used to measure the density of liquids by floating it in the liquid. Basically, the lower it sinks, the less dense the liquid is.

A hydrometer measures specific gravity (s.g. for short), with an s.g. of 1.000 being the calibrated density of distilled water at a specific temperature (usually 59 or 60 degrees F.). Because alcohol is actually less dense than water, the finial s.g.

A saccharometer is a type of hydrometer that measures the amount of sugar in a solution. It is used primarily by winemakers and brewers, and it can also be used in making sorbets. [1] ...
The great news is that the equipment can be reused, including a fermenter, hydrometer, sulfite, siphoning system, carboy and airlock stopper.
In recent years we have developed a positively friendly attitude towards hydrometers and titration.
So we'll skip the more technical side - the actual winemaking process, with its fermentation techniques, its additives, its carboys, its hydrometers, its racking, its bottling - the whole shebang.
Specific gravity indicates the ratio of any given substance's density, such as grape must, to water's density measured by a special instrument called hydrometer.
