Hydrometer A is 10" long and is for liquids denser than water, measuring specific gravity from 0.8 to 2.04 in increments of .02 and potential alcohol or Baume between -2 and 73 in increments of 1. It's calibrated to be used at an ambient temperature of 20°C/68°F. (Handy if you're fermenting your own happy juice at home.) Designed to be used at ambient temperatures of 15°C/59°F. There's a third scale in Chinese that probably measures the same things, but our Chinese is a little rusty. The jar (which is unmarked and would make a very slick big bud vase) is 50mm dia x 305mm tall with a 100mm dia base and will take a #10 rubber stopper (not included) if you feel the need to stopper it.

So you don't have a gas jet in the garage? You don't think Margie and Ted are old enough to handle the high temperatures of a Bunsen burner? Our alcohol lamps are the answer. They burn alcohol (available at the hardware store), and are hot enough to boil water, to soften glass tubing for bending, and to generate the chemical reactions generally called for in science projects. The lamp is 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" glass bowl with a wick assembly that brings the whole to a height of 4-1/2" and comes with a handy little metal lid/extinguisher.
