  2. Brix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brix

    Measuring brix and percent acidity of a sudachi. Degrees Brix (symbol °Bx) is a measure of the dissolved solids in a liquid, and is commonly used to measure dissolved sugar content of a solution. [1] One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution and represents the strength of the solution as percentage by mass. If the solution ...

  3. Beer measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_measurement

    The most common method of (indirectly) measuring the amount of extract in the wort or beer is by measuring the density of the liquid, often performed using a hydrometer, and converting the density measurement to extract, the mass fraction of sugars in the wort or beer. Hydrometers can be calibrated with a number of scales.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_(alcoholic_beverage)

    Several different scales have been used for measuring the original gravity. For historical reasons, the brewing industry largely uses the Plato scale (°P), which is essentially the same as the Brix scale used by the wine industry. For example, OG 1.050 is roughly equivalent to 12 °P.

  5. Hydrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrometer

    The hydrometer sinks deeper in low-density liquids such as kerosene, gasoline, and alcohol, and less deep in high-density liquids such as brine, milk, and acids. It is usual for hydrometers to be used with dense liquids to have the mark 1.000 (for water) near the top of the stem, and those for use with lighter liquids to have 1.000 near the bottom.

  6. Baumé scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baumé_scale

    The Baumé scale is a pair of hydrometer scales developed by French pharmacist Antoine Baumé in 1768 to measure density of various liquids. The unit of the Baumé scale has been notated variously as degrees Baumé, B°, Bé° and simply Baumé (the accent is not always present). One scale measures the density of liquids heavier than water and ...

  7. Must weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Must_weight

    A classical hand-held Brix refractometer. Brix (°Bx): Used in Italy, France, and Canada. Klosterneuburger Mostwaage (KMW): Used in Austria. The scale is divided into Klosterneuburger Zuckergrade (°KMW). However, the KMW measures the exact sugar content of the must. Normalizovaný moštomÄ›r (°NM): Used in the Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
