Hrmm... in response to the forum change: I really meant this to be more personal situation rather than a vender experience... AA has helped me out a lot, and my intension wasn't to defer anyone from going there. I just wanted to see if anyone else got their water from there and could maybe do a quick SG test to see if it they get the same thing.

Wendy, thank you for the information. I've been looking online at different refractometers, but don't know how to choose one. I found one for $39 at Dr. Foster's and Smith, but don't want to get a cheapy model that ends up being just as bad as the hydrometer in the long run. Do you (or anyone else) have recommendations as far as that goes? I could definately use some water in the mean time, and would be happy to pay you for it! Also, if I brought some water, would you mind seeing what your refractometer reads the SG at?
