A refractometer is an optical precision instrument which determines the density of a liquid by the index of refraction. Click here for a practical overview of our refractometers.
This meter has a double scale: Brix as well as specific gravity, which can be simultaneously read. No conversion is needed between Brix and SG to determine the density in wort or must. Accurate, yet easy to use: simply place a few drops of liquid on the prism and the density is directly readable. There is no need for temperature correction due to automatic temperature compensation (ATC).
When you measure during or after fermentation, the results must be corrected due to the presence of alcohol in the liquid, with the aid of a computer programme, web site page or mobile app.
