Thousands of food and beverage professionals and hobbyists, from chefs and food quality professionals and beverage manufacturers have moved from less accurate and less precise optical refractometers to digital invert sugar measurement for sugar analysis.

What people are saying

“Anyone who makes jams, honey, syrup or beverages should find this product one of the best investments they make on any piece of equipment.”

“I am in love with this instrument. No more large samples. No more phony readings from badly made refractometers.”

“Dramatically improved my commercial production consistency & efficiency. 

“I used this for finishing jams and jellies. I had been trying to determine invert sugar content using a traditional optical refractometer. I found it very difficult to use. The digital refractometer was much easier.”

Summary

The Milwaukee digital invert sugar refractometer is temperature compensated with a 0 to 85% MASS range and ±0.2 percent accuracy. It is easy to use with simple two button operation and fast with a response time under 2 seconds. Within seconds the instrument measures the refractive index of the sample and converts it to % by weight concentration units.  Maintenance is a breeze also with an easy-to-clean sealed flint glass prism and stainless steel well.

Design features
