Determining the sugar content in soft drinks is a crucial step in maintaining stable sweetness. This is typically performed via Brix determination with a digital refractometer (also known as a Brix meter). METTLER TOLEDO's Easy Bev Refractometer is an innovative solution for the beverage industry; it allows for sugar analysis of liquid samples directly from a bottle with high result repeatability. Furthermore, it does not require sample preparation, such as juice pulp filtration or degassing carbonated beverages, to measure sugar in soft drinks. This saves you 5 minutes per sample!
