is it a big deal if i didnt use sanitizer in the air lock and used just regular water

[alteregoaxeman]

@slptrav10 I use Sanistar, you dont have to rinse.. its a good product!

[Valimaar42]

Wow, I'm a lab technician... I wish I had a hydrometer that was that easy to read at work.

[alteregoaxeman]

@Valimaar42 Get yourself a good refractometer. Its more accurate, and easier to use!

Has to be an alcohol reading one, for wine or spirits...

aeriate before adding yeast

[axoll]

arent you supposed to take a hydrometer reading before you pitch the yeast? probably doesnt matter huh?

[Gilbs2211]

Before or just after you can do a hydro reading.
