Brix Scale
The content of sucrose - Brix scale vs. Specific Gravity and Plato - used in the sugar, fruit juice and wine making industry.
Brix Scale
The Brix Scale is used in the sugar, fruit juice and wine making industry. Degrees Brix - symbol °Bx - is the sugar content of an aqueous solution.
- One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution
Key Information
- Brix vs. Specific Gravity: Brix is directly related to the specific gravity (SG) of a solution
- Brix to Plato: The conversion factor is 1.04
- 1 Brix = 1.04 Plato
