THERMOMETERS
Temperature control is critical to the quality of beer, wine and cheese you produce. During the process you will need to set and maintain certain temperatures. The reason is found in chemistry. As you prepare a batch you are causing chemical reactions by applying heat.
LIQUID CRYSTAL THERMOMETER STRIP $1.95-
Adhesive backing allows you to attach this instrument to the outside of a plastic or glass fermenter and monitor the inside temperature in 2 degree increments. Ale and lager fermentation ranges are clearly marked. Range 40 to 80 degrees F.
STAINLESS STEEL DAIL THERMOMETER $12.95-
Popular with homebrewer's and backyard cooks alike. 1-3/4" easy to read dial ranges 0 to 220 degrees F. 8" probe makes taking readings easy. Includes a clip which suspends probe into pot. Stainless steel, excellent for mashing, brewing, cheese making, smoking meats.
HYDROMETERS
The hydrometer is used to measure the amount of sugar in you wort or must. This measurement is called the specific gravity. The first reading you take (prior to adding yeast) is the original gravity. Our last reading (prior to packaging) is the final gravity. These two numbers are used to calculate the alcohol content of the beverage. For details of the calculation see Calculating Alcohol Content. 
TRIPLE SCALE HYDROMETER $5.95-
Shows gravity readings in specific gravity, potential alcohol and balling, at 60 degrees F. Includes storage case.
