Hydrometer
A hydrometer is used to measure the specific gravity of your wine,
which tells you the percentage of alcohol in the
wine. This is important to know, to figure out when to add certain
ingredients or when to perform certain steps. Find a hydrometer that's
easy to use and resistant to breakage.
One thing you might want to do is just verify that it's working
properly. The documentation will tell you which temperature your
hydrometer is set for. At that temperature, measure the specific
gravity of water. It should be 1.000.
