High_Iron Nice Head!! Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 12/05/10 Posts: 1224 Loc: Long Island	1 tablet @ 15 minutes left in the boil. I added it when I put the chiller in to sanitize. That is my new petco hydrometer which IS floating in there. _________________________ Sean

High_Iron Nice Head!! Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 12/05/10 Posts: 1224 Loc: Long Island	I swear its floating. the pic is kind of cut off. there is at least 3 more inches of test cylinder that you cant see.The petco hydrometer is very small. I took the pic with my phone. this was a 4 gallon AG brew cooled with a wort chiller. _________________________ Sean
