For law-enforcement-grade pepper spray, values from 500,000 up to 5 million SHU have been reported, [1] [13] but the actual strength of the spray depends on the dilution.

The most common method of (indirectly) measuring the amount of extract in the wort or beer is by measuring the density of the liquid, often performed using a hydrometer, and converting the density measurement to extract, the mass fraction of sugars in the wort or beer. Hydrometers can be calibrated with a number of scales.
