  2. Oechsle scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oechsle_scale

    The Oechsle scale is a hydrometer scale measuring the density of grape must, [1] which is an indication of grape ripeness and sugar content used in wine-making. It is named for Ferdinand Oechsle (1774–1852) and it is widely used in the German, Swiss and Luxembourgish wine-making industries. On the Oechsle scale, one degree Oechsle (°Oe ...

  3. Hydrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrometer

    Hydrometer. Schematic drawing of a hydrometer. The lower the density of the fluid, the deeper the weighted float B sinks. The depth is read off the scale A. A hydrometer or lactometer is an instrument used for measuring density or relative density of liquids based on the concept of buoyancy. They are typically calibrated and graduated with one ...

  5. Baumé scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baumé_scale

    Baumé scale. The Baumé scale is a pair of hydrometer scales developed by French pharmacist Antoine Baumé in 1768 to measure density of various liquids. The unit of the Baumé scale has been notated variously as degrees Baumé, B°, Bé° and simply Baumé (the accent is not always present). One scale measures the density of liquids heavier ...

  6. Wine bottle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_bottle

    A wine bottle is a bottle, generally a glass bottle, that is used for holding wine. Some wines are fermented in the bottle while others are bottled only after fermentation. Recently the bottle has become a standard unit of volume to describe sales in the wine industry, measuring 750 millilitres (26.40 imp fl oz; 25.36 US fl oz).

  7. Gravity (alcoholic beverage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_(alcoholic_beverage)

    Gravity, in the context of fermenting alcoholic beverages, refers to the specific gravity (abbreviated SG), or relative density compared to water, of the wort or must at various stages in the fermentation. The concept is used in the brewing and wine-making industries. Specific gravity is measured by a hydrometer, refractometer, pycnometer or ...

  8. Fahrenheit hydrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_hydrometer

    The Fahrenheit hydrometer is a constant-volume device that will float in water. In the figure shown here, the hydrometer is floating vertically in a cylinder containing a liquid. At the bottom of the hydrometer is a weighted bulb and at the top is a pan for small weights. To use the hydrometer, one first accurately determines its weight (W ...

  9. English wine cask units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_wine_cask_units

    Tun. The tun (Old English: tunne, Latin: tunellus, Middle Latin: tunna) is an English unit of liquid volume (not weight), used for measuring wine, oil or honey. It is typically a large vat or vessel, most often holding 252 wine gallons, but occasionally other sizes (e.g. 256, 240 and 208 gallons) were also used. [1]
