Brix levels are crucial to the fresh produce industry

Brix (°bx) indicates sucrose weight in a solution or juice of a plant, and Brix levels are typically measured with a manual or digital refractometer. A refractometer is used for measuring solids dissolved in water; it corresponds directly to the refractive index scale. A refractometer allows you to accurately measure the percentage of sugar or Brix in any liquid with just 2 or 3 drops. The higher the Brix%, the sweeter the fruit or concentration is. From this, fruit maturity is indicated, and future growth can be predicted. Growers, brewers, cooks, scientists, and other professionals depend on the accuracy and dependability of our refractometers.
