Brewing & Distilling Instruments
Choose from precision Brannan saccharometers for professional brewing and distilling, available in standard or RSI in-house calibrated versions. Whether you need finer gravity measurements or a wider measuring span, our specialist team can help you select the right instrument for your application.
Understanding Gravity Measurement
A saccharometer is a specialist type of hydrometer used to measure the specific gravity of liquids during brewing, winemaking and fermentation.
By measuring the density of wort, must or wash, brewers and distillers can monitor changes throughout fermentation, assess process consistency and maintain reliable production records.
While hydrometers are used across many industries, saccharometers feature measuring scales suited to brewing-related applications. Selecting the appropriate measuring range, graduations and calibration is important for reliable results.
