Brix Refractometer
- Measures Brix and Specific Gravity readings
- Requires only a few drops of sample liquid
- Automatic temperature compensation
- Designed for unfermented wort, must, and juice
- Adjustable focus eyepiece
- Includes case, drop applicator, and screwdriver
- Lightweight handheld brewing tool
Position yourself under a light source.
Rotate the eyepiece until the display comes into focus.
Apply 2–3 drops of unfermented liquid onto the prism surface.
Close the prism cover.
Look through the eyepiece to view the reading.
After use, clean the prism surface, cover, and drop applicator with water.
If drying the prism, use a non-abrasive lint-free cloth.
For best accuracy, use samples between 50–86°F (10–30°C).
- One Brix Refractometer
- Protective storage case
- Drop applicator
- Calibration screwdriver
The Brix Refractometer is designed for measuring sugar density and potential alcohol content before fermentation.
Useful for:
- Measuring beer wort gravity
- Measuring wine must sugar content
- Checking juice sugar levels
- Monitoring brewing efficiency
- Estimating potential alcohol content
- Brew day gravity readings
The refractometer provides an alternative to hydrometers when working with smaller liquid samples.
Important: This refractometer is intended for unfermented liquids only. Final Gravity readings after fermentation should be measured with a hydrometer because alcohol impacts refractive readings.
This refractometer can also help:
- Reduce liquid waste during testing
- Speed up gravity readings on brew day
- Simplify temperature-adjusted readings
- Support recipe consistency and brew logging
The compact handheld design makes it easy to store and transport between brewing sessions.
