This hand-held optical refractometer
measures the density of sugars in the solution and gives you an
instant gravity readings at any point during the boil, or run
off from the mash. You do not need to convert the reading from
Brix to specific gravity or do an adjustments for temperature.
Great for quick and frequent check on the gravity of your
running or while sparging, and also for those who do not like
to deal with the temperature compensation necessary with a
hydrometer. Unlike a hydrometer, it only requires a very small
amount sample, about **3 drops of sample only.
This
refractometer is specifically created for brewing of BEER but
it can also be great for:
Fruits, vegetables &
grasses:
Monitor and control sugar concentrations
in foods, beverages, crops and plants, checking the
“ripeness”of fruit in the field and verifying product quality
after harvesting and/or controlling concentrations during
processing and packaging to ensure product
quality
Wine or
beer:
Use Brix readings to get wort sugars and
help determine finished alcohol readings (for alcohol reading,
best use in conjunction with a hydrometer)
Metalworking
fluids:
Helps in maintenance of CNC coolants and
water soluble drawing & stamping compounds and commonly
used for controlling the concentration of various industrial
fluids like cutting lubricants and flux rinsing
compounds
The need to consult temperature
correction charts is eliminated with the built-in ****0°C ATC.
The unit also comes with a manual calibration knob that is
secured with a lock nut and has a brighter display than the
more narrow range refractometers. One of the popular instrument
with many homebrewers!
