How to use a refractometer to measure alcohol content
Using a refractometer to measure alcohol content is a fairly straightforward process. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Clean the Refractometer: Before you begin, make sure the refractometer is clean. You can do this by wiping the prism (the glass piece where you place the liquid) with a soft, lint-free cloth.
- Calibrate the Refractometer: Most refractometers need to be calibrated with distilled water before use. To do this, place a few drops of distilled water on the prism, close the cover plate to spread the water across the prism, then look through the eyepiece and adjust the calibration screw until the reading is at zero.
- Measure the Original Gravity: Before fermentation, take a sample of your wort (unfermented beer) or must (unfermented wine) and place a few drops on the prism. Close the cover plate to spread the liquid across the prism. Look through the eyepiece and take note of the reading. This is your original gravity (OG), which represents the amount of sugar in the liquid before fermentation.
- Measure the Final Gravity: After fermentation is complete, take another sample and repeat the process. This reading is your final gravity (FG), which represents the amount of sugar left in the liquid after fermentation.
- Calculate the Alcohol Content: The difference between the original gravity and the final gravity represents the amount of sugar that has been converted into alcohol. You can use this difference to calculate the alcohol content. The formula is: Alcohol by Volume (ABV) = (OG – FG) x 131.25.
Please note that this method only provides an estimate of the alcohol content. For more accurate results, a laboratory analysis may be required. Also, refractometers are more accurate when used with clear liquids, as suspended particles can interfere with the light path and affect the readings.
