BRIX Setup Menu

BRIX is important to the quality of the final product. The BRIX menu facilitates the extraction of a sample of product from the unit for BRIX measurement. There is an automatic three second dispense of product that produces a constant volume so that a BRIX comparison can be made between samples. To perform a BRIX test, perform the procedure in Table 27.

			you are not sure.
