Herculometer VS Hydrometer - Harder to Break, but... Accurate for Mead, Wine and Cider? The Herculometer is a plastic hydrometer. I've been told by many about how inaccurate they are. While ultimate accuracy isn't that critical in homebrewing, I was hearing the Herculometer hydrometer could be ten, eve twenty points away from a typical glass hydrpoeter! Accurate is one thing, but... twenty points? Way too much. So, let's put it to the test. New to Brewing?

Pear Cider, how to make an easy perry at home. Perry is cider made from pears instead of apples. We used whole fruit that we juiced for part of this, but also used pear juice since juicing fruit is really more work than it's worth UNLESS you have a very large, very abundant source of fresh pears. If you have that... by all means, juice your fruit to make pear cider! Great perry isn't difficult, and if you have that kind of access to pears, perry is something you should try!
