    Tilt™ Hydrometer and Thermometer - Orange

    6 reviews

    Designed for homebrewing, the Tilt hydrometer lets you instantly read your brew's specific gravity and temperature on your compatible Apple iPhone/iPad or Android smartphone/tablet or Tilt Pi. Most Bluetooth 4.0+ devices will work with the Tilt. You can then optionally log data to the cloud using their free Google Sheets template or other 3rd party cloud platforms. Tilt's goal is to help homebrewers brew better beer. The Tilt hydrometer allows you to check the specific gravity and temperature of your beer while it's fermenting, without ever having to open your fermenter or pour out any of your precious brew. This makes brewing more consistent and easier to track. Here are some of the new features of the Tilt: Range: Better reception and range. With the increased transmission power your Tilt will send data through larger, thicker-walled fermenters. Precision: Upgraded sensors. With an improved temperature sensor and accelerometer your Tilt will operate with more precision.   Efficiency: Reduced power consumption so more brews, less battery changing. New Look: Newly designed custom circuit board and harness. If using multiple Tilt hydrometers for different batches of fermenting beer you must use a different color for each batch. The app will not read multiple hydrometers of the same color. Each Tilt comes calibrated and ready to go with a pre-installed battery that lasts 12-24 months depending on usage. Just download the free app, sanitize your Tilt, drop it in your fermenter, and start taking readings with your phone, tablet, or Tilt Pi. The specific gravity is accurate +/- 0.002 within the Tilt's range of 0.990 to 1.120. The thermometer is accurate +/- 1°F (+/- 0.5°C). Download the free Tilt app at the Apple App Store or Google Play Store or get the free Tilt Pi download.

  • Tilt Pro Hydrometer and Thermometer - Blue

    Tilt® Pro Hydrometer and Thermometer - Blue

    1 review

    At 3x the volume and weight of the original Tilt hydrometer, the Tilt Pro's larger size allows it to more than double the battery life with preinstalled Energizer® AA lithium batteries that will keep it powered for 3 to 5 years depending on use. So much time you may forget your Tilt actually runs on a battery! The extra size and weight come with an extra bonus: improved specific gravity stability at high krausen, so you will see a steadier read-out on your iPhone, Android, or Raspberry Pi. In addition, Tilt Pro has boosted the range with a high-gain antenna that in testing increased range by 20% vs. the original Tilt. Now you can see your Tilt through thicker heads of foam and heavier stainless steel walls. To top it off they've included the extra decimal of precision available from the sensors and to the read-out so there are now decimal degrees Fahrenheit as well as higher resolution Celsius. Specific gravity now reads out to the 10,000th place (for example 1.0000). You can now see fermentation activity dropping less than a brewer's point per day. In all they've made several adjustments we believe the craft beer professional (and serious home brewer) is sure to appreciate. Specifications: Size: 1.7" (43mm) diameter (max) by 5.4" (140mm) tall Weight: 5.4 ounces (153g) Specific Gravity Measurement Range: 0.9900 - 1.1200 Specific Gravity Resolution: 0.00001 Temperature Measurement Range: 0°F - 140°F (-17.8°C - 60°C) Note: Installed lithium batteries include a built in PTC (heat activated fuse) that will temporarily cut power if batteries exceed 140°F. Temperature resolution: 0.1°F (0.1°C) Absolute Maximum Temperature Range: -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C) Battery: User-replaceable, 2x 1.5v AA battery (Li/FeS2), widely sold as "Energizer®  AA Ultimate Lithium".

    At 3x the volume and weight of the original Tilt hydrometer, the Tilt Pro's larger size allows it to more than double the battery life with preinstalled Energizer® AA lithium batteries that will keep it powered for 3 to 5 years depending on use. So much time you may forget your Tilt actually runs on a battery! The extra size and weight come with an extra bonus: improved specific gravity stability at high krausen, so you will see a steadier read-out on your iPhone, Android, or Raspberry Pi. In addition, Tilt Pro has boosted the range with a high-gain antenna that in testing increased range by 20% vs. the original Tilt. Now you can see your Tilt through thicker heads of foam and heavier stainless steel walls. To top it off they've included the extra decimal of precision available from the sensors and to the read-out so there are now decimal degrees Fahrenheit as well as higher resolution Celsius. Specific gravity now reads out to the 10,000th place (for example 1.0000). You can now see fermentation activity dropping less than a brewer's point per day. In all they've made several adjustments we believe the craft beer professional (and serious home brewer) is sure to appreciate.

Measuring alcohol by volume (ABV) is of utmost importance for beverage manufacturers as it holds several key benefits for their operations. Firstly, ABV provides an accurate representation of the alcohol content in a particular beverage, ensuring product consistency and quality control. This information is vital for beverage manufacturers to comply with legal regulations and labeling requirements, as different jurisdictions often impose specific limits on the ABV of alcoholic beverages. Additionally, precise ABV measurements allow manufacturers to calculate the correct amount of taxes and excise duties owed on their products. By ensuring ABV accuracy, beverage manufacturers can maintain customer trust and satisfaction by delivering beverages that meet the expected potency and flavor profiles. Overall, measuring ABV is a crucial step in the manufacturing process, assisting beverage companies in maintaining regulatory compliance, product consistency, and customer confidence.

    The perfect Tilt for homebrewers with stainless steel fermenters Track your fermentation progress without ever disturbing your wort! Say goodbye to pulling samples for your glass hydrometer 2 to 3x more powerful than the standard Tilt for improved signal transmission through stainless steel Slim design to easily recover the Tilt Pro Mini in small tanks with 1.5" tri-clamp dump ports When the first Tilt hydrometer was released in 2016, most of the home brew fermentation vessels on the market were either glass carboys or plastic brew buckets. Now we see more and more small-scale stainless steel. The problem is stainless isn't that great of a window when it comes to wireless data transmission. The Tilt Pro solves this problem, though it might be bigger than what you need. This is where the Tilt Pro Mini comes in with its smaller size and price and easy recovery in smaller tanks with 1.5” dump ports along with Tilt Pro features like long range (maximum allowed by FCC) and increase in sensor resolution, it takes homebrewing to a new level. The Tilt Pro Mini can be used with the same Tilt 2, Tilt Pi, and other Tilt apps and 3rd party hardware and software as the standard Tilt and Tilt Pro hydrometers. You can even use a standard Tilt and Tilt Pro Mini together if they are the same color in the Tilt 2 app, so run up to 16 different Tilts at once in the Tilt 2 app with 8 standards and 8 pro minis.

Winemakers measure sugar concentration in "degrees Brix", or just "Brix" (1.0 Brix = 1 g sugar in 100mL water). Being able to test the sugar content of the must or wine at the following stages of winemaking gives us important data that we can use to control our alcohol levels and manage our fermentations:

Harvest/Crush:
It is a good idea to test the sugar level at the beginning of fermentation because the amount of sugar in the juice determines the amount of alcohol that will end up in the final wine: for every 1.0 Brix consumed, 0.62% alcohol is created. Sugar testing can be done with a refractometer or a hydrometer. We suggest a starting Brix range of 22-25 Brix for Red wines, and 17-24 Brix for White and Rose wines. If your must is over or under these ranges we recommend correcting it before fermentation starts. Complete information on correcting sugar levels in must can be found in both our Red Winemaking Manual and our White Winemaking Manual.
End of fermentation:
Unless you are trying to make a dessert wine, most wines are fermented to "dryness", meaning there is less than 2 g/L (0.2%) of residual sugar in the wine. A specialized "+5/-5" Brix hydrometer is a good way to tell if you are generally done fermenting the last of your sugars (look for a reading of -1.5 to -2.5 Brix) but it will not give you the most accurate result. If you want the most accurate test for residual sugars in your wine, you will need to run a Clinitest residual sugar test.
