It's pretty common for hydrometers to be inaccurate. So it might even be higher than 1.030

Something like this would be better.

Don't use distilled water to calibrate. BAR has free calibration liquid you can have.

I think my Hydrometer measures a bit low and I have the same one as you. Whenever I mix water to what the salt bucket says will mix to 1.025, it always measures like 1.020-1.022. Your Hydrometer might measure low too so beware of that.
