Default Initial Hydrometer readings

I've been relying more on refractometer readings in new must. It seems more
accurate.

The other factor that I've found that affects the hydrometer readings is the
simple thickness of the hydrometer and the fact that it seems to stick to the
walls of the cylinder that I use to collect the sample. I'd love to find a
thinner hydrometer.
