Proof & Tralle Hydrometer – Accurate Spirit Alcohol Readings Measure Alcohol Content in Distilled Spirits with Precision This specialized Proof & Tralle Hydrometer is a must-have tool for anyone working with distilled spirits like vodka, whiskey, rum, or gin. Designed for ethanol-water solutions only, it gives accurate, reliable readings of alcohol content in a clean, sugar-free sample. Key Features & Specs Dual Scale: Displays both Alcohol by Volume (%ABV) from 0% - 100% and Proof from 0 - 200 Spirit-Specific: Designed exclusively for use in ethanol-water solutions—*not suitable* for beer, wine, or any sample with residual sugars Accurate & Easy to Use: Clear, readable scale with slim body for easy handling Length: 11.25 inches Diameter: 0.67 inches Usage Recommendations To get accurate results, use this hydrometer with a sample of fully distilled, sugar-free spirits at the proper calibration temperature (typically 60°F / 20°C). A separate hydrometer test jar is required for use (not included). Due to its design for ethanol-water solutions, this hydrometer should never be used for measuring beer, wine, mead, cider, or any fermentation sample—the presence of sugars will skew the readings significantly. Ideal For: Home distillers seeking accurate ABV or proof levels Professional spirit makers verifying final alcohol content Use during proofing down or post-distillation testing Alcoholmeter Reading Notes Use a Proof and Tralle hydrometer only for appropriate alcohol measurement workflows, not for standard wort gravity. Take readings in a clean test jar and account for temperature when the instructions call for correction. Handle glass hydrometers carefully and store them in a protected tube between uses.
