☜☆☞ FOUR PARTS OF HYDROMETRE ARE:-
1. GRAVITY BULB
2. FLOATING BULB
3. NARROW STEM
4. LACTOMETER
☜☆☞ FUNCTIONS OF HYDROMETER:-
▶▶ The hydrometer is a thin glass tube sealed at both ends and has a graduated or printed scale calibrated to a specific gravity. One end of the tube is bulb shaped and weighted with fine lead shot or mercury. The lead shot or mercury causes the instrument to float upright in a liquid like a fishing bobber. A second glass tube, commonly known as a hydrometer jar, is filled with the liquid being measured. The hydrometer is then placed in the hydrometer jar containing the sample liquid. The specific gravity of the sample liquid is indicated when the level of the sample liquid in the jar aligns with a point on the the hydrometer scale. Depending on which scale is used, the number of times heavier or lighter than water, the sample liquid weight can now be recorded. The scale on the hydrometer can be calibrated to Baume, Brix (or Balling) or Alcohol.
▶Brix or Balling Scale: A hydrometer calibrated to read in degrees of Brix or Balling, or percent of pure sucrose (sugar) by weight.
▶Baume Scale: A hydrometer which is calibrated to read degrees of Baume, or percent of NaCl (salt) by weight.
▶Alcohol Scale: A standard specific gravity hydrometer that is used to measure specific gravity before and after a liquid is fermented. The difference of the two specific gravity readings is referenced to an alcohol scale to determine percent alcohol by weight.
