58-90% Brix/Honey Refractometer
Brix: 58-90%, Baume: 38-43Be', water: 10-33%
A Hand held Refractometer is especially necessary when testing high sugar items like honey. This unit uses ambient light so no battery or power source is required.
Natural raw honey varies from 14% to 18% moisture content. But that's not the end of it...
Honey is hygroscopic; that is, it has excellent water absorbing properties. Thus honey will change in moisture content according to the surrounding atmosphere. This characteristic is important in storing honey because it will absorb water when exposed to high relative humidity (RH) and will give off water when exposed to low RH.
High moisture honey will ferment. This is caused by the presence of several yeast species which produce alcohol. The alcohol may break down to acetic acid (vinegar) and water, giving the honey a distinctly sour or 'off' taste. If you detect that your honey has a high water content, there are methods used to 'dry' out your honey to preserve it.
