What he heck is a ebulliometer?

[ibglowin]

Measures boiling point.

Wade it is used to get an accurate measurement of the ABV recognized by the TTB.

Thanks both!

OK, where is the best place to get some TA stands and Burettes? Im going big soon and going with the Hanna S02 tester.

Wade I got the whole TA set up at Presque Isle.

Self-zeroing Acid Testing Kit

I highly recommend this as you will use it for most all of your testing

Magnetic stirrer


I buy my beakers and pipettes and misc from this lab as they are very reasonable compared to other places. $25.00 minimum order.

Cynmar Lab

Holy Cow! $150 to test TA! I like my $10 Kit

What size sample do you use on that if your flask is that big? You have to drain reagent in the burette when not in use right?

Yes drain it from there and the bottle. If I was to do it again now knowing what I do I would have shopped around more like at Cynmor. I was xmas and wife was looking for one more thing and this was a complete kit. At the time I did not know anything about it, so its been a learning experience so that has made it worth while getting everything together. Plus I use my ph meter now for testing acid instead of color change.

Wow! All this stuff will take the fun out of home wine making, in addition to being very expensive, I havn't the slighest idea of what some of these things do! I think I'll stick to the hit & miss wine making method, seems to have worked so far & I won't have get a degree to understand what the other stuff does!!
