The Tilt floats in your fermenter and reports specific gravity and temperature over Bluetooth, so you can follow fermentation on your phone instead of pulling samples. It reads gravity from 0.990 to 1.120 with an accuracy of plus or minus 0.002, and temperature to within about 1 degree F. Readings can be logged to the cloud for a full fermentation history, and Tilts come in different colors so you can track several batches at once.
