1. What are the importance of measuring or computing the brix concentration of syrup?
- Brix measurement (or Brix scale) is a well-known application in the food and beverage industry, among others. The Brix scale is used to measure sugar content in substances such as soft drinks, fruit juices and tomato concentrates, but also in those such as cutting oil, which are very often far away from pure sucrose/water solutions.
2. Why do we need to calculate the proper amount of sugar needed in a mixture?
- For me, we need to calculate the exact amount of sugar that needed in a mixture to ensure safety and to avoid illnesses that will occure.
