Match the scale to your wine-production record

Use Brix, potential alcohol, Oechsle and KMW scales for grape and wine-production sample checks with the MDX-401.

Match the scale to your wine-production record

MDX-401 combines Brix, potential alcohol (PA), Oechsle and KMW/Babo. These scale choices suit grape-grower and winemaking records that use different reporting conventions. Select the intended scale before measuring and retain its unit with the result; potential alcohol is not a direct measurement of finished-wine alcohol.

Read a defined range

Brix spans 0โ€“50%, PA 0โ€“22% v/v, Oechsle 0โ€“150ยฐ and KMW 0โ€“25ยฐ. Compare the scale required by your procedure with these limits. The selected wine scale should match the sample type and reporting convention; this model is not a honey-moisture instrument.

A digital bench-to-field instrument

A covered stainless-steel prism well and removable rubber grip provide access to the sample area. The digital display and 15-read loop support repeat observations. Manufacturer photographs represent the digital instrument family; the screen values shown are illustrative, not an analysis of your sample.

Start with the correct zero and method

Zero with distilled water as directed and follow the MDX-401 temperature-compensation and sampling instructions. The supplied lined hard case, pipet and battery make a portable instrument set. Choose a dedicated honey or sugar model instead if those scalesโ€”not wine-production scalesโ€”are the actual requirement.
