Good god, I didn't pay that much. They were about 10-15 quid each, they look to be a bit more now probably due to exchange rate.

I have paid about £25 for a narrow range beer jobby, so when I saw you had eight in the photo.
I immediately thought - thats not a cheap set.
I have to say I only use my middle one in the parrot - anything else I use a refracto for.

Thanks for the link Capt.
The first one I found on a quick scan down the linked page was 8 squiddleys, I will take some time and look properly tomorrow
Cheers.
Robert.

Thank you to you all, and sorry for the confusion. I was meaning awash that has fully fermented, but then adding faints before my strip run. I know the strength of faints, but wondered if there was something out there that I could measure alcohol liquid at any level. Given that a wash will almost certainly have a level of sugar still.
Thank you for all your help though, still practicing, but still enjoying my mistakes, usually with an ice cube!

There is a treacherous way of using a refractometer and hydrometer I think. With an enormous calculation.
I tried, thought it was a bit shite, so I have actively forgotten it.
