The Homestead Maple Syrup Hydrometer by GSM Brands is an incredibly accurate and easy-to-read instrument designed specifically for measuring the baume and brix scale to ensure the consistent quality of your maple syrup. Crafted with precision and attention to detail, this professional-grade hydrometer will deliver delicious results year after year.
Measuring at 9.5 inches tall and 0.5 inches in diameter, the Homestead Hydrometer is easy to handle and can be used both in the kitchen and outdoors during maple syrup preparation. Manufactured with high-quality glass, this hydrometer is built to last and provides crystal-clear readings, allowing you to measure the density of your syrup and make your maple sap sweet and delicious.
The Homestead Hydrometer features both Baumé and Brix scales, providing accurate measurements for your maple syrup. This ensures your preparation process is consistent and perfect, helping you achieve the desired sugar content every time.
Using the Homestead Hydrometer is a straightforward process. For the hot test, simply place the syrup directly from the boiling pan into a sample cup at least 8 inches deep, and slowly lower the hydrometer into the syrup. Make sure to hold the hydrometer tightly until it is floating on its own or resting on the bottom of the sample cup, as a hydrometer released in lightweight syrup can potentially crack the bottom of the cup.
The top HOT TEST red line should be even with the liquid surface. If the red line floats above the syrup surface, the sample is too heavy, and you can add a small amount of hot sap to thin it and retest. If the red line is buried in the sample, the syrup is too thin, and further boiling is required.
For the cold test, follow the same process but use the lower COLD TEST red line on the hydrometer, as it is calibrated for 60-degree Fahrenheit syrup. Allow the hydrometer to stabilize in the cold syrup before taking the reading.
The Homestead Maple Syrup Hydrometer comes securely packaged in a protective cylinder with soft cushions at both ends to ensure a safe arrival. The cylinder also includes reusable end caps, allowing you to store the hydrometer safely for the next maple syrup season.
We are so confident in the Homestead Hydrometer's performance that we offer a money-back guarantee. If the hydrometer fails to meet your expectations, simply return it for a full refund.
