If the analyst uses the Plato tables (maintained by the American Society of Brewing Chemists [3]) they reports in °P. If using the Brix table (the current version of which is maintained by NIST and can be found on their website), [4] they reports in °Bx. If using the ICUMSA tables, [5] they would report in mass fraction (m.f.).
A rough conversion between specific gravity, SG, and either degrees Brix, Plato or Balling can be made by dividing the thousandths of SG above 1 (which is often referred to as gravity points) by 4. So a specific gravity of 1.048 has 48 gravity points, and 48 divided by 4 would be approximately 12 degrees Plato, Balling or Brix.
It is important, where any conversion to °P is involved, that the proper pair of temperatures be used for the conversion table or formula being employed. The current ASBC table is (20 °C/20 °C) meaning that the density is measured at 20 °C (68 °F) and referenced to the density of water at 20 °C (68 °F) (i.e. 0.998203 g/cm 3 or 0.0360624 ...
where SBV fermented is sugar by volume (g/dL) converted to alcohol during fermentation and GECF is the glucose-ethanol conversion factor: = where 46.069 is the molar mass of ethanol and 180.156 is the molar mass of glucose and fructose.
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).
LeBron James #23 of the Los Angeles Lakers dribbles the ball during the game against the Utah Jazz on December 1, 2024 at Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
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 moštoměr (°NM): Used in the Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
Brix refractometers are often used by hobbyists for making preserves including jams, marmalades and honey. In beekeeping , a brix refractometer is used to measure the amount of water in honey. Bausch & Lomb Abbe Refractometer, ca. 1919-1926
