The EasyDens from Anton Paar was developed as a digital gravity/alcohol tester for small commercial breweries, but this product is just as useful in the winemaking process—from measuring and tracking the sugar content of grapes in the field to measuring alcohol levels at the end of fermentation. With only a small sample being needed, the EasyDens eliminates the need to fill up a hydrometer jar or using a refractometer and spread sheet to determine your test results. A tiny 2 ml sample is all that you need for an accurate Brix reading. Alcohol % can also be tracked at any point during fermentation. The unit hooks up to your smartphone via Bluetooth and stores various fermentation "profiles" enabling you to track fermentation progress, alcohol levels, and help know when it's time to bottle your wine! Brix Measurements Range: -10 °Brix to 80 °Brix Accuracy: 0.3 °Brix Resolution: 0.1 °Brix In order to get accurate measurements, please note your sample will need to have the solids filtered out and degassed prior to taking measurements. A simple coffee filter is recommended for filtering samples. Protect your device with the Silicone Protection Cover! See the documents tab for frequently asked questions about the Easy Dens.

Our basic hydrometer is an essential tool for testing starting and finishing beer gravity, or sugar content, in beer or wine fermentations. Has three scales—specific gravity, potential alcohol, and sugar per liter. 9" long. Comes in storage case with complete, helpful directions. Scale Ranges: Specific Gravity: 0.980–1.150 Potential Alcohol: 0–18% Sugar Per Liter: -60–340 Converting SPL to Brix One degree Brix is equal to one gram of sugar per 100 mL of solution. Since a liter is equal to 1000 mL, you can calculate the Brix by dividing Sugar Per Liter by 10. Therefore, a must that contains 210 grams of sugar per liter is equal to 21 Brix.

Designed for homebrewing, the Tilt hydrometer lets you instantly read your brew's specific gravity and temperature on your compatible Apple iPhone/iPad or Android smartphone/tablet or Tilt Pi. Most Bluetooth 4.0+ devices will work with the Tilt. You can then optionally log data to the cloud using their free Google Sheets template or other 3rd party cloud platforms. Tilt's goal is to help homebrewers brew better beer. The Tilt hydrometer allows you to check the specific gravity and temperature of your beer while it's fermenting, without ever having to open your fermenter or pour out any of your precious brew. This makes brewing more consistent and easier to track. Here are some of the new features of the Tilt: Range: Better reception and range. With the increased transmission power your Tilt will send data through larger, thicker-walled fermenters. Precision: Upgraded sensors. With an improved temperature sensor and accelerometer your Tilt will operate with more precision.   Efficiency: Reduced power consumption so more brews, less battery changing. New Look: Newly designed custom circuit board and harness. If using multiple Tilt hydrometers for different batches of fermenting beer you must use a different color for each batch. The app will not read multiple hydrometers of the same color. Each Tilt comes calibrated and ready to go with a pre-installed battery that lasts 12-24 months depending on usage. Just download the free app, sanitize your Tilt, drop it in your fermenter, and start taking readings with your phone, tablet, or Tilt Pi. The specific gravity is accurate +/- 0.002 within the Tilt's range of 0.990 to 1.120. The thermometer is accurate +/- 1°F (+/- 0.5°C). Download the free Tilt app at the Apple App Store or Google Play Store or get the free Tilt Pi download.
