A refractometer is used to measure the density of a solution, in our case how much malt sugar is in solution.
Featuring both a Brix scale AND a Specific Gravity Scale which is ideal for satisfying both beer and wine customers.
Our refractometer is unique in that it features both a Brix Scale and a Specific Gravity Scale, the scale most homebrewers use.
For Wine: Measure the brix level (sugar level) in your grapes.
For Beer Making: A refractometer allows you take instant gravity readings at any point during the boil, or even during the run off of the sparge during an all-grain brew. Our unit allows you to measure in Specific Gravity Scale.
