This refractometer is intended for measuring the sugar concentration in honey solution, expressed in Brix degrees (% Brix).
- Indispensable for the preparation of home-made meads - the refractometer is a precise optical instrument that will work well for both beginner and experienced producers of homemade liquor.
- For measuring sugar concentration - with this device, you can check the percentage content of sugar on a scale of 0-90% Brix and ensure that your honey solution has the right quality and that the resulting liquor has the desired flavour.
- Easy to use - to check the sugar content, all it takes is a drop of honey solution applied directly onto the prism of the instrument.
- Ensures accurate measurement - the refractometer is equipped with ATC (automatic temperature compensation) and allows measurements to be taken with high accuracy.
- Convenient and practical - the refractometer is portable and lightweight and can be used to take the necessary measurements quickly and easily.
Before using the instrument, read the user manual supplied with it – and follow the instructions provided regarding focus adjustment, instrument calibration, sample testing, and cleaning of prism and plate.
If you are preparing homemade mead and want to know the sugar concentration in your honey solution, a refractometer will allow you to measure this quickly and easily. The design of the unit, employing ATC, or automatic temperature compensation, will ensure that you get accurate results.
The instrument's indications are based on examining the refractive index of light (in simplest terms – the change in the direction of refraction of light when a sample is drawn onto the prism of the refractometer).
Range of measurement: 0~90°% in the Brix scale
