Fast, convenient, and easy to use, the MISCO Digital Beer Refractometer requires only a fraction of the sample size required by traditional hydrometers. Simply place a drop or two of wort in the stainless steel well and press a button. The beer refractometer delivers a nearly instantaneous digital readout on a large backlit LCD display. The digital readout removes the subjectivity associated with interpreting where a boundary line crosses tiny little scale divisions. Precision is assured thanks to MISCOs proven OPTICAL-ENGINE, which is at the heart of every Digital Beer Refractometer. Optical-Engine technology features high-precision sapphire optics, the next hardest substance to diamond, which improves the speed and accuracy of temperature measurements. Competing digital refractometers only use glass prisms. A 1,024 element high-definition detector array provides more than eight times the resolution of competing 128 element low-definition detector arrays. The MISCO array has more than 3,256 pixels per inch (ppi) resolution compared with 400 ppi resolution in competing digital refractometers. The net result is an instrument that is more rugged and more precise. Nonlinear temperature compensation is specific to beer, not sucrose, and automatically ensures that fluids read between 10 and 40 C (50 to 104 F) are measured accurately. Calibration is automatic and does not require the use of special calibration solutions or tools. The beer refractometer automatically calibrates itself to water and is ready to use in seconds. No more screws to turn and nothing to adjust INCLUDES: MISCO Palm Abbe Refractometer Instruction Manual Does NOT include the Protective Rubber Armor Jacket Brand New! Fresh from the Factory! Multi-scale Digital Beer Refractometer for measuring the Dissolved Solids, Specific Gravity of wort, and propylene glycol antifreeze This refractometer will give you a much more accurate indication of true total sugar content of wort, as opposed to an estimate from a sucrose-based Brix refractometer These beer scales are automatically temperature compensated specifically for wort. The propylene glycol scale is ideal for propylene glycol antifreeze in wort coolers and chiller systems. NO ARMOR CASE International Shipping: Shipping will be via US Postal's Air Mail/Global Priority (3-8 business days) is $15.00 ($12.00 to Canada) .
