Narrow range brix hydrometer that allows for highly accurate measurement. These hydrometers are excellent for use in the middle and towards the end of wine fermentation.
It features a built-in thermometer and correction scale for temperature correction of the reading. Thermometer measures a range of 30-150 F (0-50 C) with 1 degree resolution.
These brix hydrometers are calibrated at 68 F (20 C).
Used to determine the level of SO2 in your wine. Contains 10 tests in the form of glass titrets. They can be used by themselves or you can purchase W510B which is a titret holder. Please keep in mind that due to some chemical interference, this kit is only accurate to within +/- 30ppm when used to test red wines.
Please note: the box states that this test kit is to be used with white wines only. However, we have found the kit can still be used for red wines as well. Titration tests are based on chemical reactions that cause a color change in the sample. This color change, which is much more obvious in white wine samples, will be harder to detect when used with red wine samples.

A Quick Overview – Wine Analysis Procedures with the SC-300:
Easy SO2 Test
Attach SO2 electrode, press the power button, change to SO2 mode and press enter.
Draw up 5 mL of titrant into the syringe and place 25 mL of wine in beaker.
Add ~2 mL of the acidifier and ~2 mL of the reactant to wine.
Place and hold the SO2 electrode in the wine sample and swirl beaker.
Add titrant from syringe dropwise until 15 second long endpoint signal reached.
Multiply the titration volume by 20, the SO2 conversion factor, results in ppm Free SO2.
Simple pH Test
Attach the pH electrode, set aside storage solution, rinse with DI water and blot gently with a paper towel.
Press the power button then press the ‘Mode’ button and switch the SC-200 into ‘Cal’ mode.
Calibrate using the pH 4 and pH 7 reference standards provided. Put the SC-200 in pH mode.
Take 5 mL sample of wine, place in a beaker. Take a pH reading.
Accurate TA Test
For TA test, withdraw 5 mL of the TA Titrant with the syringe.
Take 5 mL wine sample and add ~15 mL of deionized water.
Put SC-200 into TA mode, place clean pH electrode gently in solution.
Add TA Titrant from the syringe dropwise until the endpoint is reached indicated with the visual and audible signals. Record the volume (in mL) of titrant used.
Multiply the titrantion volume by 2, the TA conversion factor, results in g/L Tartaric Acid.
Vinmetrica Troubleshooting Guide
Finally - Accurate & Affordable Free SO2 Testing!
In winemaking, Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) is one of the most important and effective tools in the winemaker's arsenal for protecting against the effects of oxidative or microbial spoilage. Unfortunately, over time any SO2 added to a wine will be consumed due to its interaction with the very things that it is protecting the wine from. The ability to accurately monitor the amount of SO2 remaining available in a wine to protect it - termed Free SO2 - is hugely important when it comes to ensuring that the wine makes it through the aging process safely.
For years MoreWine! has offered a variety of methods for testing the level of Free SO2 in a wine. Until now, winemakers had to make a choice between inexpensive test kits which lacked accuracy and kits which are highly accurate but cost hundreds of dollars. Now MoreWine! has developed an inexpensive AND accurate test kit which we feel has a place in every home winery.
Based on the exact same science as our original Aeration-Oxidation test kit, our new Economy Aeration-Oxidation kit offers a high degree of accuracy for a fraction of the price. Aeration-Oxidation is the exact same testing method used in thousands of commercial wineries and wine analysis laboratories around the world. It is time-tested and proven accurate and is simple to perform. Our kit includes:
All the glassware and tubing needed to set up a 2-chamber test apparatus
Pipettes to accurately measure your wine sample and chemicals
An aspiration pump to drive the chemical reaction in the test method
Enough chemical reagents to run 2-3 tests
Clear and comprehensive instructions for setting up and running the system
PLEASE NOTE: This kit ships with a small bottle of 25% phosphoric acid which is required for the test. At this strength phosphoric acid is considered a hazardous material and we are not certified to ship larger quantities. We recommend that you investigate the possibility of sourcing it locally, through a laboratory supply company. If this is not possible, you can purchase it through us; see part #s MT108DS & MT108BDS. The high cost of these bottles reflects the $20 surcharge which FedEx adds to handle a hazardous shipment. These bottles ship directly from our supplier's warehouse and will take a couple of extra days to arrive.

The SC-100A puts you in control of your wine sulfite analysis. It’s highly accurate and sensitive titration system conveniently alerts you visually and audibly when the endpoint is detected by its electrode.
Because it doesn’t rely on a color change, the SC-100A eliminates the guesswork in Ripper sulfite tests, especially in red wines!
The SC-100A analyzer gives you confidence to run your sulfite assays accurately and quickly. Kit includes everything to perform approx. 50 tests: electrode, reagents, pipettes, syringe and beaker.
How It Works:
The SC-100A improves on the tried and true Ripper Method by eliminating the guesswork in colorimetric analysis and replacing it with digital detection indicators.
It uses an amperometric electrode and replaces the iodine reagent with a more stable reagent. Its ease of use and accurate amperometric titration method vastly improves on the original Ripper Method.
The SO2 Titrant reacts with the sulfite in the wine. When all the free SO2 is titrated, the endpoint is signalled by visual and audible indicators. The test endpoint is much more sensitive than the starch endpoint commonly employed for sulfite titrations. It’s sharp and clear, even when titrating red wines and musts.
Once the syringe titration is complete, determine the titration volume (which is the difference of titrant you started with and its final reading on the syringe) and multiply it by 20 (the conversion factor).
The conversion factor takes into account the known concentration of the titrant and some simple unit conversions to determine the ppm Free SO2 in your wine sample. So for example if you used 1.2 mL of SO2 Titrant during the titration, your equation would look like this:
1.2 mL X 20 = 24 ppm Free SO2
Simple To Use
Attach SO2 electrode, press the power button, change to ‘SO2′ mode and press enter.
Draw up 5 mL of titrant into the syringe. Then place 25 mL of wine in beaker.
Add ~2 mL of the acidifier and ~2 mL of the reactant to wine.
Place and hold the SO2 electrode into the wine sample and swirl beaker.
Add titrant dropwise, pause when device beeps, until 15 seconds of beeps reached.
Multiply the titration volume by 20, the SO2 conversion factor, results in ppm Free SO2.

Care and Use
pH meters usually start performing poorly because of problems with the probe. The two parts of the pH probe that cause problems are the glass sensing bulb and the reference junction.
Sensing Bulb
The glass bulb loses sensitivity with use and will eventually fail. This is true of all pH probes.
Reference Junction
The reference junction is a small hole that allows the meter to compare the sample to a reference. The reading is generated based on the electrical difference between the sample and reference. If the junction hole gets clogged, the pH electrode will no longer function.
You can extend the life of your pH electrode in the following ways.
Storage
To minimize clogging the pH probe needs to be kept hydrated. Long periods of dry storage will damage the sensitivity of the probe. Allowing the probe to dry out may also result in the junction hole getting clogged.
Storing in pH probe storage solution or pH calibration buffers will help address both these issues. Do not store in tap water and DI water. This will damage the sensitivity of the probe.
The best way to store the probe is with the probe's cap filled with storage solution or calibration buffer and the cap tightened to prevent leakage. It is also recommended that to store the electrode upright to further reduce the potential for leakage.
Cleaning and Maitenance
Residue from the sample can impact the sensitivity of the sensing bulb and clog the junction. This is especially true if the sample has a lot of organic material. We recommend regularly soaking your electrode in cleaning solution. Also:
Inspect the electotrode for damage or scratches, if present replace the electrode.
Inspect the cable. The connection cable and insulation must be intact.
Connectors should be clean and dry.
Rinse off salt deposits with water or DI water.
Calibration
The pH sensing bulbs become less sensitive over time so make sure that you are calibrating regularly to keep your PRO Plus pH meter accurate. Also, calibrate after cleaning or a long period of storage.

The HI7041S electrolyte fill solution has been developed for Hanna's polarographic dissolved oxygen probes. Having the correct electrolyte solution is crucial to the performance of your dissolved oxygen probe.
Convenient dropper bottle
Made with reagent grade chemicals
HI7041S is designed to refill the electrolyte solution for polarographic dissolved oxygen probes. Polarographic sensor technology is based on the Ross and Clark polarographic measurement method. An oxygen probe is composed of a platinum electrode and a solid silver electrode. The HI7041S is a concentrated Potassium Chloride solution held in place over the electrode by a PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) membrane. With polarographic technology, an external voltage is applied to the platinum cathode, silver anode, electrolyte solution and gas-permeable membrane to establish a current that is proportional to the concentration of oxygen in a solution.
HI7040L is a high quality, bicomponent zero oxygen solution made from reagent grade chemicals. Hanna dissolved oxygen solutions have the lot number and expiration date clearly marked on the label and are air tight with a tamper-proof seal to ensure the quality of the solution.
Prepared with reagent grade chemicals.
Hassle-free, easy to mix chemical component bottles.
Air-tight seal to ensure the quality of the solution
HI7040L is a bicomponent zero oxygen solution designed for calibrating both polarographic and galvanic dissolved oxygen sensors. By simply immersing the dissolved oxygen probe in the solution users can quickly calibrate to 0% oxygen concentration, allowing for accurate follow-up measurements of dissolved oxygen in their sample. Hanna dissolved oxygen solutions are produced in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility using reagent grade chemicals in a temperature controlled environment.

The HI84500-62 are packets of stabilizer reagent required for determination of sulfur dioxide in wine using the HI84500 Sulfur Dioxide Mini Titrator for Wine Analysis. The HI84500 mini titrator uses two different titrant solutions that contain different concentrations of potassium iodate to measure a wide range of sulfur dioxide concentration in wine. Both low and high range measurements require the addition of HI84500-62 stabilizer powder to convert iodate into iodine, which in turn reacts with sulfur dioxide. The HI84500-62 powder is packaged into single use packets that are emptied into the sample prior to performing the titration.
Pre-measured packets
Clearly marked expiration date and lot number
The HI84500-62 stabilizer powder packets are necessary to convert the iodate titrant into iodine. The iodine then reacts with sulfur dioxide and the HI3148B ORP electrode is used to detect the endpoint for both the low (1.0 to 40.0 ppm of SO2) and high (30 to 400 ppm of SO2) ranges. The decision by Hanna to use the HI84500-62 stabilizer powder packets and iodate titrant in place of a iodine titrant is due to shelf stability. Iodate offers much greater shelf stability than iodine. By using stabilizer packets the titrant solutions remain stable for longer periods of time.The HI84500 can be used with all wines, including red, which are difficult to test using traditional methods due to the difficulty to observe a distinctive color change when the endpoint is reached.
The HI84500 determines the free and total sulfur dioxide concentration in wine using the Ripper method. Excess iodide is added to the wine sample and reacts with the iodate titrant to produce iodine:
IO3- + 5I- + 6H+ → 3I2 + 3H2O
The iodine produced reacts with sulfur dioxide in the wine according to the redox reaction below:
H2SO3 + I2 → H2SO4 + 2HI
Replacement reagents required to operate the HI84500 include:
Low Range - 1.0 to 40.0 ppm of SO2
High Range - 30 to 400 ppm of SO2

Vinmetrica Troubleshooting Guide
HI7061L is a general purpose cleaning solution for use with pH and ORP electrode that can be used for a variety of applications. pH electrodes become dirty with use and can produce inaccurate results. Use our General Purpose pH Electrode Cleaning Solution to prolong the life of your electrode and ensure accurate readings.
Specially formulated for cleaning pH and ORP electrodes
Clearly marked expiration date and lot number for traceability.
Air-tight seal to ensure the quality of the solution
The most common cause for pH measurement inaccuracies is an unclean or improperly cleaned electrode. This is very important to note, because during calibration, the instrument assumes that the electrode is clean and that the standardization curve created during the calibration process will remain a valid reference until the next calibration. pH meters on the market today will allow an offset voltage of approximately ±60 mV. The deviation from 0 mV is not unusual but ideally should be no greater than ±30 mV. The calibration process compensates for the change in offset voltage. If the mV offset continues to deviate and the meter is calibrated with a dirty electrode then inaccurate readings will result.
Cleaning is a fast and effective routine that should be performed on a regular basis as a preventative measure against using a dirty electrode and to ensure that the junction is not clogged. By simply immersing the electrode in the HI7061L cleaning solution for 15 to 20 minutes will dissolve any mineral deposits or other coatings.
