brix refractometer vs hydrometer
Can I use a refractometer instead of a hydrometer?
The “simple” answer is that no, hydrometry and refractometry are not interchangeable and that you shouldn't try to use a refractometer during active fermentation.
Refractometry relies on measuring how a ray of light will bend (refract) through liquids of different densities to be read out on a scale.The most popular instrument for Brix measurement is either refractometer or a hydrometer, where a refractometer is an optical device, and a hydrometer is a glass device used to measure the specific gravity [4,5,8].
Which is more accurate refractometer or hydrometer?
The indication is that Hydrometers are affected by suspended solids and that the readings are more accurate when done in filtered juice [3].
When using a Refractometer, there appears to be less of a dependency on whether the juice is filtered or unfiltered.
