Honey Refractometer,V-Resourcing Hand Held Be'(Baume)/Brix/Water Refractometer for Honey Test,Tri-Scale (Baume:38-43°;Brix:58-92%;Water:12-27%)

So far I have used sucrose brix refractometers and now this sodium chloride one. I like this design because it is easy to calibrate and check, easy to view in light and easy to clean.Checked with a few different solutions, worked great and the calibration know is stiff enough to hold a long time. For price, great value and worth it!

Works as described. Calibrated it with distilled water and was easily able to take a Brix reading with no issues.

Disclaimer: Not a scientist; despised science in school. Never used a salinity refractometer before this.While visiting a relative for a week and drinking a lot of their well water, I found myself retaining water/swelling even though there was no change to my diet or physical activity and the altitude was the same there as it is at home. I got the idea to test the sodium levels in their water next time I visited.I bought this refractometer, calibrated it with distilled water, tested my drinking water at home and recorded the results. I added different amounts of table salt to my water and watched the levels go off-the-charts in the viewfinder!So, I took this with me (along with some distilled for re-calibration) next time I visited. I was 100% correct! Their well water had an elevated level of sodium. I bring jugs of water when I visit now, or they have it on hand for me…problem solved.

I tested filtered water. 0% sugar.I tested fermented water kefir (homemade) 6% sugar (apparently normal)I tested pre-fermented water kefir (homemade) 10% sugarI wanted to test my water kefir because it seems to be so sweet even after a 7 day ferment. I checked to see what was normal for water kefir that was not sweetened in a 2nd ferment. 6% is right on the nose.After further investigation that's about 3 gm of sugar per cup. Similar to a green apple.

Super easy to use, and works like a charm.

Good refractometor for checking industrial coolant concentrations. Very reasonable price.

Refractometer works. For colostrum quality screening.

I got this after my hydrometer broke to get my ABV of wine.I tested water, was correct at 0.I tested a 7% beer from store, it showed 3%.Tested store wine at 15%, showed 8%.This was after I got temps even, no air bubbles, entire droplets squished evenly across the glass.I wanted to like this product, but sadly it didn’t work. Lack of accuracy makes it pointless to use. I will be buying another hydrometer….Could just be poor quality control.

DO NOT BUY I purchased one it broke within a week purchased another one did not work at all terrible terrible terrible terrible product do not buy alert do not buy

This is a great quality product. Easy to use

Delivered in a timely manner and as described. A relatively good price for what it does.

Used for my very small scale (8 taps) hobby sugaring. I had previously been going by temperature and my syrup always seemed a bit thin. This instrument confirmed that I needed to boil it down further than what the thermometer was telling me.

This works very well and has fixed my problem of not knowing my alcohol content in my home brew, I do hydrometer reedings but was not feeling it gave me a proper reading but feel confident with doing both readings very easy to use
