## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does is measure in Brix over 60**
A: Hi LA!  My name is Mike at Bel-Art/H-B Instrument & SP Scienceware.  
Using standard Brix-to-Specific Gravity charts, we see that 60° Brix is equivalent to a SG of 1.291, so the hydrometer you have chosen's range easily covers this value, and beyond.
I hope this answered your question, but if not, please email me at mgrzelak@belart.com…

**Q: can I use this for  Isopropyl Alcohol**
A: Hi!  My name is Mike at Bel-Art/H-B Instrument & SP Scienceware.
This particular hydrometer, no.  Alcohol is always lighter than water, so if you were to use a hydrometer designed to measure Specific Gravity, your SG range would need to be below 1.000.  We also have hydrometers specifically designed to measure the % alcohol by volume for isopropyl alcohol.  The part number for the range I think you are looking for (50-100%) is B61809-4100.  Remember, if you wish to measure the alcohol content of hand sanitizer, you'd need to measure the alcohol BEFORE it is added to the aloe/glycerin.  If you have questions about this, or if you'd like a conversion table for % alcohol vs. specific gravity, please send me an email...

**Q: Hello - Is this able to measure alcohol content in hand sanitizer? If not, would you have a product that does? Thank you!**
A: Hi!  My name is Mike at Bel-Art/H-B Instrument & SP Scienceware.
I'm sorry, no.  Hydrometers do measure density, but if you measured the thick, viscous mix of the hand sanitizer you would never be able to know if the density you were measuring was that of the aloe, of the alcohol + aloe mix, or of the less viscous aloe since you added the alcohol.  I'm assuming you wish to measure the alcohol content in the hand sanitizer, and to do so you would need an % alcohol hydrometer, but even with this you could only make a measurement of the alcohol percentage before you mixed the alcohol and aloe together, again for the same viscosity reasons.  To achieve the most accurate alcohol content, you would have to measure the alcohol % alone with an alcohol hydrometer.  This percentage would have to be greater than the percent alcohol you wanted to end up with.  Let's say you have 1 cup of 100% alcohol.  If you add 1 cup of aloe and glycerol mix you would have 2 cups of 50% alcohol-aloe-mix. 
I hope this answered your question, but if not, please email me at michael.grzelak@spindustries.com…

**Q: Can this be used for ceramic glazes? Need to measure 1.0-2.0?**
A: Hi!  My name is Mike at  SP BelArt.
Sorry, no.  While the glaze may be heavier than water it is also viscous.  Unfortunately a hydrometer isn't designed to measure viscousity.
