Graduation 0.1 %
Reference temperature 20 °C
Length/Ø 265 x 20 mm.
The density of beer depends on the temperature.
The higher the temperature, the lower the density and vice versa.
For this reason, beer spindles are generally set to 20 °C.
Deviations must be corrected accordingly. Correction tables are normally supplied with the beer spindle (see table below).
On the scale of the beer spindle, °P (degrees Plato) or % wt (weight per cent) can be read off (from below; see picture below).
A value of 12 °P shows that 1000 g of wort contains 120 g or 12 %wt of extract. The brewer speaks of 12 ° original wort.
Hobby brewers can use spindles with a measuring range of 0 to 20 °P.
For more precise determinations, there are spindles with a limited measuring range, such as one each for 0 - 7, 7 - 14, 14 - 21 °P.
