Description

A refractometer is used to measure the density of a solution.


Measure the brix level (sugar level) in your grapes with just one drop! The perfect vineyard tool for monitoring ripening grapes. We also use them after the crush to get an exact brix reading. A refractometer cannot be directly used after fermentation has taken place as alcohol distorts the reading, however a conversion calculator (MS Excel based) is available from MoreWine! on request.

Refractometer Statistics: Our refractometer is hand held with a metal body, flexible eye piece and rubber grip. It features a 0 to 32% Brix scale with .2% resolution and ATC (Automatic Temperature Compensation). Traditional refractometers without ATC are calibrated to work at 68 degrees Fahrenheit. The ATC function allows you to use the refractometer in an ambient temperature range of 50-86 degrees Fahrenheit (10-30 Celsius.) Because your sample is just one drop, and will quickly adjust to the temperature of the refractometer, the temperature of the sample is irrelevant. Our unit also comes with a manual calibration knob that is secured with a lock nut. To calibrate place one drop of water (distilled water is preferred, but not required) on the testing platform and adjust to zero if necessary.

Better way to read Gravity
Horacio V G on Jul 20, 2019
I'm looking to simplify my gravity readings during the brew process. Using a standard hydrometer can be an issue due to wort temperature. I'm hoping the refractometer will allow me to take simple, fast, and accurate gravity readings pre and post boil.

The scale in the product image shows a Brix value of 20 correlates to 1.077 SG. However, according to the paragraph above, the correct value is about 1.084. MoreBeer says they worked with their manufacturer to create a more accurate, non-linear SG to Brix scale for the refractometer. Is the product image incorrect or am I missing something?
Blake L on Jul 25, 2020
BEST ANSWER: I purchased one in June 2019. I just looked through it and 20 Brix corresponds to 1.083 SG, as it should. My refractometer has always agreed with my hydrometer very well (for unfermented wort).
Does this come with a dropper (eye dropper) for extracting wort?
Stephen M on Aug 22, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Mine came with a little dropper and a little screw driver for the calibration adjustments (purchased April 2023). Both shared a slot in the foam within the case it came in.

Good product
Even with my poor vision I can read the scales. Easy to read and agrees with my hydrometer (1.050 range). Convenient to use after mashing to see if I hit my OG targets. Will start to use in the vineyard soon as well.

Simplifies readings on brew day
This unit was super easy to calibrate and is amazingly easy to use. It has simplified my brew day as readings don't require thieving nearly as much liquid.

Low Volume Gravity Measurement
Picked this up after trying to use a thief and hydrometer for gravity measurements. This is so much easier, I can imagine using my hydrometer over it ever again. Requires just a few drops to get a measurement, and since it is such a small volume, the temperature of the sample will cool to room temperature very quickly. The dual scale is very easy to read and comes in handy to know both Brix and SG for the OG and to make corrections for EtOH during/after fermentation. Easy to calibrate with a set screw on the unit and a few drops of distilled water.
