• ​For measuring sugar content - this areometer is intended for measuring sugar content in a winemaking batch within the range of 0-24°Blg.
• Shatterproof, convenient test tube - the plastic cylinder for liquid has a convenient, flat bottom and will never break, which is an advantage over its equivalents made of glass.
• Measurement test tube with a closure - the test tube features a closure that prevents the areometer for sliding out when carried or stored
• The ranges of concentrations recommended are marked with colours - the areometer scale features colour-marked ranged of sugar concentrations appropriate for a given stage of fermentation
• Easy measuring - the device is extremely easy to use. The measurement is carried out directly

Vinometer - a sugar meter for wine is a device required for determining quickly and accurately how much sugar is in a winemaking batch. Vinometer is an areometer scaled in Balling degrees (°Blg) - 1°Blg corresponds approximately to 10 g of sugar in 1 L of juice (must). Based on that, you can anticipate the liquor’s alcohol content. To make things easier, the ranges of concentration recommended have been marked - thanks to that you do not need any additional calculations or tables.
- red zone “fermentation start I” - before commencing fermentation, the sugar concentration should not exceed 22°Blg
- yellow zone “fermentation start II” - immediately after adding further doses of sugar during fermentation, the vinometer indications should not exceed 16°Blg
- green zone “end” - in the final phase of fermentation, the readings for dry and semi-sweet wines should be within this range
It is very easy to use the vinometer. It is enough to place the areometer in the test tube and full it with such an amount of liquid that the floater floats freely. The result is read from the scale on the basis of the upper meniscus.

The device is calibrated in the temperature of 20°C.

How to use:
In order to take the measurement, place the areometer in the test tube and pour in the liquid without gas bubbles and solid particles. The amount of liquid should be such that the floater in the test tube floats freely and does not touch the container walls.
The sugar concentration is read according to the upper meniscus of the liquid.
After making the measurement, dispose of the liquid - do not drink it.

The set includes:
- plastic test tube
- test tube plug
- areometer

Range: from 0 to 24°Blg.
