    This review is from: Hydrometer 12″ Test Jar w/ removable base
    I have been homebrewing for almost a year now and have many successful 5 gallon batches under my belt. When I first started, I used the plastic bottle my hydrometer came in as a test jar, but that was less than ideal as the cheap thin plastic was not very strong and the base was not very stable when I stood it on the counter full of beer. After upgrading to this model I have been much happier with the results. The base is wide so I don’t have to worry about the thing tipping over and the clear plastic is very sturdy. An added bonus is that the base unscrews from the clear barrel so that both can be washed and sanitized.

    My only complaint about this testing jar is that its width equates to more volume and that means more beer lost each time I do a test. So in a roundabout way, it has forced me to take fewer gravity readings, which probably isn’t a terrible thing! Highly recommended.

    Purchased the first one and it broke immediately. Amazon contacted me and immediately replaced the broken. Unbelievable, but the second also broke immediately. In fact, I never even touched the second one and gave it to a friend and he experienced the test jar breakerage. Wasn’t worth my while to request a third. Hate to trash the product – but this is what happened twice. The best part is that the test jar comes in a plastic sleve which we used instead. Keep the sleve packaging as a backup.

    At the bottom. So I called their cust svc & spoke with a very nice lady who asked me to take a picture of the damage as it appeared to be structural i.e., not because of damage in transit. So I took a picture as best I could with my webcam, sent it to her & they sent me another one which was fine, so all’s well that ends well.
