Product Details

A refractometer instantly reads gravity, in Brix, of unfermented wort or fruit juice by measuring the degree that light passing through the sample is bent. Unlike a hydrometer, only a few drops are required for a sample. To use, apply 2-3 drops to the prism face, close cover, and look through the eyepiece while aiming your refractometer at a light source.

The Specific Gravity scale will provide a quick reading of your Original Gravity. Once fermentation has begun and alcohol is present, keep track of the Brix scale and use the Refractometer Calculator for Final Gravity correction.

It is also a great tool for All-Grain Brewing. Easily sample your mash runoff so you know exactly when to stop sparging (typically 2-3 Brix). Then easily take readings before and during the boil to make sure you hit your recipe targets.

Our refractometers measure from 0-32° Brix, with an accuracy of +/- 0.2° Brix. They also include automatic temperature compensation for temperatures between 50-86° F, which eliminates the need to consult temperature correction charts.

Instantly read the gravity, in Brix, of unfermented wort of fruit juice – with just a few drops of liquid. This refractometer reads gravity by measuring the angle at which the light passes through the sample. Easier to use than a hydrometer, you only need a few drops for the sample. To use, apply 2-3 drops to the prism face, close cover, and look through the eyepiece while aiming your refractometer at a light source. The Specific Gravity scale will provide a quick reading of your Original Gravity. Once fermentation has begun and alcohol is present, keep track of the Brix scale and use the Refractometer Calculator for Final Gravity correction.

Our refractometer comes complete with a screwdriver for calibration, a microfiber cloth for cleaning the prism surface, a pipette for sample collection, and detailed usage instructions.

Refractometer

Hello,
The unit itself works great. Small samples are required to get accurate readings. If your brewing small batches, less product is wasted in testing if you like to test frequently.
The one concern on the front end , take time to calibrate it often.
Use RO or distilled water to calibrate it.

Also, avoid running it under warm or hot water and testing another brew. You may get an inaccurate readings because off the increased temp from the water.

Brix SG review

I have not used this Refractometer yet. I have been been making wine in the past with my old Italian neighbor who came over from Italy and brought old world methods with him. The wine we make actually turns out quite good. I am just trying to add a little modern technology to the process. I plan to try all this out on a Midwest wine kit first, which my neighbor would completely not approve of!! I’ll possibly give another review after is use it.
