This is by far the best brewing accessory I have bought in years.Easy to use, takes all the chances of contamination out of the process due to repeated sampling and/or opening containers.I wish I would have bought one yeara ago.

I use the Tilt Wireless Hydrometer and Thermometer for fermenting beer and mead, and it has been a game-changer. It took me a little time to get it set up with a Raspberry Pi Zero W, but once it was configured, it worked great! The precision monitoring and control it offers are impressive. The battery life is very long, and replacing the battery is straightforward. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is due to the initial setup process being a bit tricky. Overall, a fantastic tool for any serious brewer!

This has saved me so much time and effort regarding the homebrewing process. Unit will broadcast the temp and density reading even from inside a stainless steel fermenter. No need to open lids for readings. You have to be within a few feet of the Tilt to get the reading though.MAKE SURE YOU TIGHTEN THE CAP FULLY.A loose cap will cause your circuit board to short, also make sure you remove the battery after each use and wash the capsule, cap, rubber grommet after each use and leave the Tilt out until capsule and cap are 100% dry. I have made about 25 batches since I purchased this and it has worked flawlessly.

Easy to use and super accurate. You can recalibrate in water or factory reset easily if you feel the tilt is off. Auto connect to apps like Brewfather and more accurately track your fermentation and temperature.

I love the way this thing tells you how your brew is doing. I began by linking it via Bluetooth to my phone to get it to the wifi and fill out a spreadsheet (created by Tilt for each brew). I get temperature and specific gravity readings every 15 minutes. After determining that it worked with my phone, I got a Raspberry Pi and downloaded the image from Tilt. Again, it was super easy to set up, and it's been working great for a month over three wine brews. Tilt has good information on how to set it up and use it. It is easily calibrated and accurate once calibrated. The only time I've seen mine become inaccurate is when the yeast aggressively devours the sugar (the first day or so). All the activity tends to make the tilt less accurate, but after that initial period, it does just fine. For me, this was well worth the money.

This is my 3rd Tilt device as I really appreciate monitoring wine and beer temps and SGs continuously. I’ve used other options in the past which required a floater on a string through the airlock, but these were problematic maintaining a good air seal, but I like that those devices supported WiFi logging so I didn’t need to trigger readings.These devices are easy to setup (just drop in through the opening of most fermenters), easy to use (just open the app, name your brew and reading take place automatically), and the software works well with a nicely designed Google spreadsheet which not only shows all readings but also graphs them and calculates ABV. This is great and I’m happy enough with this product that I’ve purchased 3 of them!That being said, I’m really missing the WiFi support of my old solution. It’s a hassle to remember to open up the app and stand close enough to the fermenters to get a reading (when mine are in the basement I can usually get a reading from the upper floor if standing directly above it), but that manual process leads to irregular samples and gaps in the data, and when you’re not there, you’ve not getting any data at all so you end up with big gaps whenever you travel and can’t see if something going wrong when you’re away.Tilt’s website indicates they offer a solution for this: Free software you can install on a Raspberry Pi device (something you purchase separately and configure yourself - not something they currently sell as a solution). I’ll probably give this a shot soon but wish they had an off the shelf solution for WiFi.

Unit appears to function well. Both Hydrometer and temperature. Easy to use. With this I can remotely monitor the fermentation process; without the need to open the fermenter and risk contaminating the batch.Sadly the waterproof plastic tube housing the electronics disintegrated and I thought all was lost. That was until I reached out to the distributor and then the manufacturer. Chantel at La Fabrique du Vin jumped right in and began to process a warranty replacement. Another person suggested contacting Tilt directly; which I did. Grace at Baronbrew responded right away and we began the warranty replacement. They coordinated with La Fabrique du Vin and within a few weeks, a brand new Tilt arrived complete with a wrench to safely remove the end cap.Way To GO!! Chantel and Grace! Thank you SO very much!!

I absolutely love this hydrometer/thermometer. It's already helped me get the right water addition post boil to my homebrew and I love that I can throw it in a fermenter and just check it from my phone on their app. It's slick, and there are a lot of 3rd party softwares that can plot your fermentation over time and help integrate it into your brewing recipes. They're also starting to work with professional brewers and have some cool toys offered on their site if you want to really get into larger scale brewing.I have one complaint about this thing: it can be a pain to set up logging. It uses a bluetooth LE signal while floating to send the temp/sg and it sends it every couple milliseconds which will quickly drain the battery. The bluetooth LE signal can be picked up by your phone or another device, like a raspberry pi, set up near the Tilt. You can set up logging through the phone app or a pi using a google doc (csv) which will log every 15 min. (This seems practical: if it logged every time the signal was sent you'd end up with a wicked large csv file pretty fast.) There are instructions on the tilt website for how to do this, and while it takes some time it's pretty straightforward. However, the way the google doc connection is set up is fairly unsecured.I ended up using a spam gmail account to set up logging so if it got hacked I wouldn't lose anything important or personal. Also, if you don't have a pi, your phone will need to be near the Tilt in order to pass that signal to the google doc. However, there's an active community of homebrewing-programmers that are working on some better open source tools for this device. If you want to go down that rabbit hole, check out linjmeyer/tilt-pitch on github. I haven't used it yet but I looked through the code and it looks really promising.All that being said, it's still a great device that I'm going to be using for the foreseeable future.

Worked exactly as described and matched my manual readings. Instructions included a little lacking but lots of info online. Jist know that it is contained in a plastic tube that needs to be removed. Trying to calibrate and would not work at all. Just floated horizontally. Yup. Take it out of the packaging tube :)

Great product but get the raspberry pi with it since the Bluetooth is weak. The battery died on my second batch.
