Your cart is empty.This distillers parrot is a piece of kit that allows you to use a proof hydrometer to take continuous alcohol gravity measurements throughout your pot or reflux still run. It works by redirecting the flow of distillate up and past the instrument. It should be placed inline of your distillation outlet so that the drops of distillate fall directly into the tallest collection cone. Only place in-line AFTER you collect your foreshots. We found this a very good product well thought out, well made, and easy to use. The best parrot arrangement to make reading the proof uncomplicated. The distillate drips into the collection cone cup and flows out around your hydrometer (Not Included) where it will be simple to read at a glance. The scale floats up right before your eyes making it easy to separate heads, hearts, and tails! Inner diameter is 19mm (0.74") and will fit most standard proof hydrometers. By redirecting the fresh distillate to flow around the alcoholometer, you can instantly get an accurate reading of the abv of your output without having to fill a test beaker. These parrots have a collection cup on the tail end so that you do not need any fancy tubing or piping to redirect the output. The base is ~3 inches around and the body is ~12" tall. Base can be removed. The welds are done with care and the product is a work of art. INSTRUCTIONS: Put in place AFTER you collect your foreshots. Position a collector jar in place below the outflow. Once the parrot starts to get some liquid in it and gently lower your hydrometer into center of the parrot. Be careful not to drop it in, especially without any liquid/distillate in there as the glass instruments are fragile.

Works great! Had to use a smaller hydrometer to get a more accurate reading.

I really loved the product when it first arrived it was great after 2nd use noticed the all in the inside of first collection cup is rust everywhere it's supposed to be stainless steel I think is where they welded it and the weld is rusting and rust is definitely not great for you

The parrot appears to be of good quality however the ALCO meter was shattered in the box. I sent seller feedback about getting a replacement meter and have heard nothing from the seller. Customer service, maybe not the best.

Great construction and a surprisingly heavy base to avoid tipping. Also includes a hydrometer as well.
