button.

Brix Setup

If initial concentrate brix is 60 and required mixing ratio is 6+1/6:1 (6 ounces water to one part concentrate), then brix of ready to drink mixture of a concentrate and water should be 10.

To measure brix level, a refractometer is used to show sucrose content in a drink by measuring change of the light diffraction in the water caused by change of viscosity due to sucrose content.

The correct ratio is achieved by controlling water and a concentrate flow to the mixing device, in this case mixing chamber. Brix on each dispensing head is preset in the factory. In the field, the brix needs to be fine-tuned to the
