I calibrated it with water, but I suspect it was too cold. So I am pleased to see you mention temperature sensitivity!
Calculations? Just reading the specific gravity, then entering the Original and Final gravity figures into the Brewer's Friend website calculator. Still very much a novice in this respect.
I tuned it to the same measurement as the hydrometer with the correct temperature wort so will see if it is even close to the original gravity next time I brew!
