Very easy to use all you need to get precise information on OG final gravity ABV of the final product. When I got my hands on this equipment my life became much easier and happier! P.S. very quick replies from customers service Highly recommend for brewers

Can't answer my own questions on MB so....
I wrote a series of questions to Anton Paar after submitting them to MoreBeer. It won't let me post a response to my own question so I hope this helps....: ------- 1)Just to be clear: You're saying I can obtain an accurate (within half a percent) ABV reading without any kind of Original Gravity record? Yes the combination of EasyDens with SmartRef allow the measurement of density and refractive index. By knowing these two measurement values it is possible to calculate the ABV with an accuracy of 0.5 % v/v. 2) If I'm measuring fruited / adjunct beers is the ABV% reading still reliable and in the same 0.5% margin of error? Unfortunately it does not work if you add fruits. In this case there is additional sugar which influences the measurement and the result will be incorrect. 3) On the 'SmartRef' individual item page on MoreBeer they have this statement "EasyDens gives accurate readings at any point during fermentation without the need for an original reading." Does this mean I can pull ABV without an OG measurement with just EasyDens (rather than as part of the EasyDens-SmartRef combo) No this is not correct. You cannot measure ABV of beer using only EasyDens. If you are just using EasyDens for alcohol calculation you will need OG and FG. But EasyDens does the calculation of the estimated alcohol content fully automatically. 4) On the EasyDens individual page MoreBeer has this statement: Features Free: Basic features and all measurement units Premium features: Free for one year". Given that Is ABV-without-OG considered a measurement unit or a premium feature? You can perform 10 ABV measurements per month for free if you need more ABV measurements per month you will need the premium version. 4.a) Eitherway what are the costs of the premium features of the apps and what are those premium features? Information about in-app purchases can be found in your Apple App Store or Google Play Store. There are several premium features like Temperature coefficient free selectable Higher resolution for most measurement values Unlimited batches in the app Unlimited ABV measurements two different units free selectable on the display I hope this information is helpful to you. If you have any further requests do not hesitate to contact me. All the best Esther Support Team

I have several questions about this actually: 1) Just to be clear: No OG = still accurate (within half a percent) ABV reading? (re: "In addition to the individual benefits and readings that both machines offer the EasyDens and SmartRef can be used together to gain the additional following measurements in finished beer or wine. These measurements do not require that you have an upfront original measurements. ") 2) If you're measuring fruited / adjunct beers is the ABV% reading still reliable and in the same margin of error? 3) On the 'SmartRef' individual item page on MoreBeer you have this statement "EasyDens gives accurate readings at any point during fermentation without the need for an original reading." Does this mean I can pull ABV without an OG measurement and just with the EasyDens? 4) On the EasyDens individual page you have this statement "Features Free: Basic features and all measurement units Premium features: Free for one year". Is ABV considered a measurement unit or a premium feature? 4.a) Eitherway what are the costs of the premium features of the apps?
