Refractometer for beer wort 1 to 1.120, brix 0 to 32
This optical refractometer (brixmeter) has a scale in the range of
0 - 32 %Bx (% of the sugar content in an aqueous solution - Mas
Sacch). The reading resolution is 0.2 %. It is designed for the
measurement of wort (brewing) or ferment for brandy.
| Scale / Characteristic | Scale Range | Resolution |
| Glucose / sugar | 0 to 32 %Bx | 0.2 %Bx |
| Wort specific gravity | 1.000 to 1.120 | 0.001 |
The usual sucrose concentration of selected substances
Example: 100 grams of 25 %Bx aqueous solution contains 25 grams of
sugar. In other words, there is 25 grams of sugar and 75 grams of
water in 100 grams of sugar solution.

Measurement
The liquid measurement is very easy. Place a few drops of the
liquid on the optical part of the refractometer, cover the prism
(the liquid will spread more easily over the prism), look throught
the eyepiece against the light (focus, if necessary) and you will
be able to read the result value on the scale.
