For sure. This refractometer with automatic temperature compensation can be used for home brewing. For home brewing hobbyists, this digital handheld refractometer is a must-have. With this refractometer, you can measure the sugar content of the wort in the pre-fermentation process. So, you can know the alcohol content of the final product.
Q2: When should I use calibration fluid for this refractometer handheld?
If you get positive or negative values after dripping clear water, you need to press the button for a short time. And then long-press it to calibrate. It can be used normally after the calibration.
Q3: Does this handheld refractometer use batteries or does it support charging?
The FJDynamics Refractometer supports Type-C charging, with a 350 mAh lithium battery. It can reach full charge in 1h. Continuous use for more than 3 hours and continuous standby for up to 200 days.
Q4: Does the liquid groove of the hand held refractometer need to be covered during measurement?
You don’t need a storage case to protect your FJDynamics Refractometer. Those handheld refractometers with fragile lenses cannot receive light refraction. But our handheld refractometers take accurate measurements in less than 2s.
Q5: I am a fruit wholesaler in the food beverage industry. I need to buy a device with a good hand held refractometer price to test the sugar content of fruit. Can I trust the accuracy of your product?
It’s your top pick with advanced optics. Please rest assured that the accuracy of our product is certified by professional organizations. You can also buy professional calibration fluids to test the accuracy of the refractometer handheld.
Q6: Are there any notes for testing I need to know?
When using it for the first time, it is necessary to calibrate the device with pure water at room temperature until the brix scale on the screen shows 0%. If test results vary significantly, the temperature difference is the root cause. Calibrate the device with clean water. If you want to test the content of water in honey, please check the Brix range 0-95% maple syrup refractometer.
Q7: How to use the FJD Brix Refractometer?
First, use distilled water to calibrate the degree brix if not using it for a long time. Next, boot the FJD Brix Refractometer in a sugar-free state before measuring sugar. Put only a few drops of liquid sample into the sample tank, then click to test. It will not take a long time for testing. The readings of degree brix, temperature, and refraction rate will come out within 2s on the LCD screen, quick and accurate. We recommend that you use it with the App to see more test data.
Q8: What to do if there is a deviation in the results of several tests?
Try recalibrating the refractometer. No need to drop some water on the testing platform and adjust therefractometerto zero or apply 2-3 drops to the prism surface and close the cover like traditional refractometers. First, rinse the auto refractometer, wipe the sample tank, and click the button to turn it on in a scale-free state. Then, drop enough amount of distilled water into the sample tank. Press the button briefly followed by a long press until the screen reads “Complete” and the brix reads “0.00%”.
