RAPT Pill Hydrometer & Thermometer Quick Start Guide
1: Standard Calibration
The Standard calibration mode is recommended for most users.
Standard calibration is the quickest and simplest method of calibration.
1. Fill a container of sufficient volume to hold the RAPT Pill in suspension with a liquid of
known gravity. It is simplest and easiest to use water which has a gravity of 1.000.
2. Once the angle reading has stabilised* enter the gravity (1.000 for water) and press
Calibrate. Wait until the screen indicates that calibration is complete.
Your Pill is now ready to use!
* The angle will never be completely steady, as it is extremely sensitive. Press Calibrate when the
RAPT Pill has stabilised as much as possible.
2: Advanced Calibration
The advanced calibration mode can give greater accuracy across a wider range.
Advanced calibration is also quite quick and easy, and can provide a more accurate result than
Standard Calibration. It is the same procedure as standard calibration, but in addition to water at
1.000, have a solution of a known gravity prepared.
We recommend using a gravity in the range that your fermentation will start – 1.040-1.060 for
typical beers, for example.
1. Fill a container of sufficient volume to hold it in suspension with a liquid of known gravity. It
is simplest and easiest to use water which has a gravity of 1.000.
2. Prepare another vessel capable of holding the Pill in suspension with a solution of known
gravity in the range representative of the upper limit of your starting gravities.
3. Place the Pill in the weaker solution. Once the angle reading has stabilised enter the gravity
(1.000 for water) and hit Calibrate. Wait until the screen indicates that calibration is
complete.
4. Place the Pill in the stronger solution. Enter the gravity as determined by a calibrated
hydrometer. Once the angle reading has stabilised press Calibrate. Wait until the screen
indicates that calibration is complete.
