For the ultimate in accuracy, the Brewer's Edge Precision Specific Gravity hydrometer is hand checked to assure full range accuracy. Excellent for serious home brewers and small commercial brewers, this hydrometer features a 1.000 to 1.100 full range scale with 1° calibrations 20% larger than our standard Hydrometer T07. Imported. 12” long.

Q: Is this hydrometer read at the top or the bottom of the meniscus?
A: Straight across the surface of the beer, not the top or bottom (level with the fluid).
Replaced my old Precision Hydrometer
I have been using this hydrometer (that I can only seem to find at William's) for at least 20 years. This one replaces the second one that I broke. I think they used to sell a storage/drying rack for hydrometers and their cylinders, but I can't seem to find that item. It would probably have saved me two hydrometers and at least one skinny cylinder (again, only William's seems to offer).
Nice hydrometer
Better than the one I bought from William's, oh, 20 years ago. This model more accurate (1 degree scale) and better range than models from other homebrew suppliers.
Great piece of lab equipment
This is a nice, super easy to read hydrometer.
Great Hydro Upgrade
I had been using a cheapish triple scale hydro for the last year with 0.002 accuracy, but the scale on it is so compressed that it was really hard to read. It was always off a little when cross-referenced with a refractometer. This precision 0.001 unit is spot-on when cross-referenced with a refractometer and much easier to read. Worth the extra price! My only concern is that the glass is thin and the product seems fragile. Handle with care in your brew cave!
Not Accurate
Unfortunately, this is the least accurate (and most expensive) hydrometer I own. It is off by close to 0.0025 when tested with distilled water at 60.9F. It's easy to read, though.
