Steroglass · Wine and distillate control
Alcodens
A hydrostatic balance for alcohol by volume and calculated oenological parameters after the required sample preparation.
Quick decision
Is this method right for your task?
Consider it when
Wine and spirits laboratories that need an instrumental hydrostatic method.
We clarify before quoting
Sample types, required parameters and ranges, tests per shift, reference method, sample preparation and data requirements.
Another method may be better when
You need different parameters, measurement ranges, throughput, automation or confirmation against another reference method.
Best suited for
Wine and spirits laboratories that need an instrumental hydrostatic method.
Capabilities and controlled parameters
- 0–100% v/v alcohol range; 0.01% v/v resolution and stated 0.02% v/v accuracy and repeatability.
- Density at 20 °C and calculated total dry extract within the specified range.
- For must: Baumé, Babo, volumic mass and probable alcohol.
- 5-inch screen, internal calibration, USB and RS-232.
- The manufacturer references the OIV method and European regulations; the laboratory must confirm the required edition and scope.
Specifications have been checked against the official manufacturer page.
