I have been using a copper tun hydrometer for as long as i have been brewing, and lately i brought a 2nd hand barrel which came with a coopers hydrometer. I have never used the coopers one until today as I thought the reading on the copper tun one was quite high.
it turns out they are quite different
the copper tun one showed 1017 where as the coopers one showed 1005
here are the photos taken at the same time... should they be different?
