I know they sound like a dated Jerry Lewis line but has anyone seen these in OZ? I think they are around the $20US mark but at the rate people break hydrometers...
BrewBalls simplifies the measurement of specific gravities of your wort throughout the entire fermentation.
Now it is no longer necessary to extract samples to float a hydrometer to measure gravities since BrewBalls are placed in the wort before fermentation begins. The risk of contamination is eliminated because you never have to remove the airlock until you are ready to bottle or keg your beer.
Each of the five precision BrewBalls is carefully manufactured to have an exact weight to create a specific density as a function of its volume. The values are 1.005, 1.010, 1.020, 1.035 & 1.055.
As the sugars are consumed by the yeast and the specific gravity drops the balls fall to the bottom of the fermenter in succession until final gravity is reached.
BrewBalls are made of food-grade HDPE and are impervious to most liquids and will not stain. It is, however, necessary to rinse and thoroughly dry them after each use. Care should be taken to prevent scratches or abrasions which may make it difficult to ensure sanitization.
