Tilt Hydrometer Pro - Black

At 3x the volume and weight of our original Tilt hydrometer, the Tilt Pro's larger size allows us to increase power for longer range in stainless. The included AA lithium batteries still last for 1 to 2 years depending on use, similar to our standard Tilt. The extra size and weight comes 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, we have boosted range with a power amplifier and high-gain antenna that in testing increased range by 2x to 3x vs. our original Tilt. Now you can see your Tilt through thicker heads of foam and heavier stainless steel walls. To top it off  we'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 we've made several adjustments we believe the craft beer professional (and serious home brewer) is sure to appreciate.
