{"product_id":"brix-specific-gravity-refractometer-with-atc","title":"Brix\/Specific Gravity Refractometer w\/ATC","description":"A Brix Refractometer that includes a specific gravity scale. You won't have to do conversions between Brix and gravity when measuring the Original Gravity of musts or wort. Measuring final gravity accurately will still take some calculations, as the presence of alcohol does affect the reading. (See our article on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.northernbrewer.com\/blogs\/brewing-techniques\/using-a-refractometer\" title=\"What is a refractometer, and how do you use one?\"\u003eHow to Use a Refractometer\u003c\/a\u003e for more information.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBest of all, it only requires a few drops of liquid for an accurate reading. No need to lose a whole hydrometer test jar of beer or wine in the process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur refractometer comes complete with a screwdriver for calibration, a microfiber cloth for cleaning the prism surface, a pipette for sample collection, and detailed usage instructions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck out our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/refractometer-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"refractometer calculator\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eRefractometer Calculator\u003c\/a\u003e, which will allow you to convert Brix to gravity before and during fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA refractometer instantly reads gravity, in Brix, of unfermented wort or fruit juice by measuring the degree that light passing through the sample is bent. Unlike a hydrometer, only a few drops are required for a sample. To use, apply 2-3 drops to the prism face, close cover, and look through the eyepiece while aiming your refractometer at a light source.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c!--split--\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe Specific Gravity scale will provide a quick reading of your Original Gravity. Once fermentation has begun and alcohol is present, keep track of the Brix scale and use the \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/refractometer-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"refractometer calculator\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eRefractometer Calculator\u003c\/a\u003e for Final Gravity correction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is also a great tool for All-Grain Brewing. Easily sample your mash runoff so you know exactly when to stop sparging (typically 2-3 Brix). Then easily take readings before and during the boil to make sure you hit your recipe targets. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur refractometers measure from 0-32° Brix, with an accuracy of +\/- 0.2° Brix. They also include automatic temperature compensation for temperatures between 50-86° F, which eliminates the need to consult temperature correction charts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Northern Brewer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35201547829398,"sku":"7462","price":44.99,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0436\/3367\/2342\/products\/7462-brix-specific-gravity-refractometer-atc_silver_1__1_565f8b14-d580-4620-b1f3-fa4ecfc251d1.jpg?v=1594717735","url":"https:\/\/northernbrewerfew-com.myshopify.com\/products\/brix-specific-gravity-refractometer-with-atc","provider":"northernbrewerfew.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
