At room temp (approx 78 f) my hydrometer is reading 1.0002.
Looking at the temp adjustments I thought that was fine but by adding
hot water I see it should be .002 off in the other direction and read
.998
So I think my device is "off".
Either way my initial SG reading is 1.100.....now considering my
calibration is off by +2 and it should be reading -2 at this temp I am
getting actual readings......I think.
With all of the above would you add water before the yeast or not?
