Refractometer - Dual Scale - Specific Gravity / Brix with ATC

The refractometer is used for measuring Specific Gravity of Wort and density of sugar related liquids such as fruit juice, soft-drinks, wine and wort.  In Beer or Wine use the refractometer readings to get wort sugars and help determine finished alcohol readings (for alcohol reading, best used in conjunction with a hydrometer).  Refractometers are a must have for All Grain Brewing, especially during the mash and lauter stages.  Works great with a Refractometer Lens Light.

Note that a refractometer gives an inaccurate reading on already fermenting or fermented beer.  You can use a refractometer correction caclulator to get a more accurate reading, but the use of a hydrometer in a throughly degassed beer will give more accurate results.
