A distiller's parrot is a piece of equipment that allows you to take alcohol gravity measurements using a Proof & Tralle hydrometer (alcometer) continuously throughout your pot or reflux run. It should be placed at the output of the still so that the drops of distillate fall directly into the tallest collection cone after the foreshots have been discarded. The Proof & Tralle hydrometer is then gently placed into the lower cone. Forcefully dropping your hydrometer into the parrot could cause damage or breakage.
