Hi All,
I was given a refractometer as a gift but it measures in % salt content. I am obviously more familiar with SG or salinity. I was able to find what I believe to be the answer to my question here in the form of a table:
Specific gravity
Would you guys be comfortable using that table in place of a regular swing hydrometer? I am hesitant because if I am off by .2% it looks like that can effect SG a lot.
Thoughts? returning it isn't an option and my fallback is a swing hydrometer that produces somewhat reliable results.
Thanks in advance.
