Description
Hydrometer 10–20 °Plato with thermometer – from Alla France
Hydrometer from the French maker Alla France for measuring the sugar content of wort in degrees Plato. The scale runs from 10 to 20 °Plato, and the hydrometer has a built-in thermometer and a temperature correction scale. The narrow range makes the scale easier to read accurately than on a hydrometer that covers everything from water to strong wort.

Frequently asked questions about the 10–20 °Plato hydrometer
What are degrees Plato?
Degrees Plato (°P) express how much extract, mainly sugar, the wort contains. 1 °P equals 1 g of extract per 100 g of wort. 10–20 °P corresponds to a specific gravity (SG) of roughly 1.040–1.083.
Can I measure final gravity with this hydrometer?
Usually not. Fully fermented beer is normally below 10 °Plato. For final gravity you need a hydrometer with a lower scale.
Why does the hydrometer have a thermometer?
The reading is affected by temperature. With a built-in thermometer and correction scale you can correct the reading directly.
