Product information "Milwaukee MA883 Digital Baumé Refractometer"

Digital refractometer for determining the Baumé degree in liquids. Particularly suitable for analysing grape must, as well as for applications in viticulture, quality control and laboratory work.

Milwaukee MA883 Digital Baumé Refractometer – Ideal for viticulture, brewing and the food industry

The Milwaukee MA883 is a digital refractometer for determining the Baumé value in liquids. The measurement is based on the refractive index of the sample, from which the corresponding Baumé value is calculated. The measurement result is shown directly on the display, enabling quick and straightforward evaluation.

The Baumé scale is used in particular for analysing grape must. It is used to determine the density of a liquid, which in turn provides an indication of its sugar content. This makes the Baumé value an important parameter for quality control and assessing ripeness in viticulture.

The digital measurement method simplifies daily work, as there is no need to read scales manually. Just a few drops of sample are sufficient for a measurement. Thanks to the short measurement time, results can be recorded within a few seconds, making the device suitable for both individual measurements and regular checks.

Automatic temperature compensation accounts for temperature fluctuations during measurement and ensures reliable results. The robust housing with IP65 protection is designed for daily use and protects the device from external influences.
