What is Brix?
Brix is a measure of the sugar content in a solution, expressed as grams of sucrose per 100 grams of solution.
How does temperature affect density?
Density decreases as temperature increases because the solution expands. The formula includes a temperature correction term.
Is this formula accurate for all concentrations?
It is a good approximation for typical syrup concentrations (0-80°Brix) at common temperatures. For extreme conditions, more precise data may be needed.

此计算器背后的数学公式，供您核对结果。
Density approximation
This empirical formula estimates density (kg/m³) from Brix (B) and temperature (T in °C).
Example:
Input: B = 50, T = 20
Calculation: 1000 + 4·50 + 0.02·2500 − 0.6·0
Result: 1250 kg/m³
实际应用场景
此计算在日常生活中的应用。
Candy making
Determine the density of sugar syrups to achieve the right texture and consistency.
Example: A 70°Brix syrup at 20°C has a density of about 1378 kg/m³.
Beverage production
Adjust syrup density for consistent flavor and mouthfeel in drinks.
Example: Calibrate a 60°Brix syrup at 25°C.
Food science
Estimate density for nutritional labeling and quality control.
Example: Check a 40°Brix solution at 15°C.
提示与常见错误
Tips
- Use a refractometer to measure Brix accurately.
- Cool or heat the syrup to the target temperature before measuring.
- Stir the syrup thoroughly to ensure uniform concentration.
- For precise work, calibrate with a known standard.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using Brix as a percentage without converting to decimal in other formulas.
- Ignoring temperature effects when comparing densities.
- Assuming density is linear with Brix; the quadratic term matters at high concentrations.
假设与限制
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
