Specific Gravity (Original Gravity) - The ratio of the density of wort to that of water. Gives an indication of how much sugar is there in the wort before fermentation.

Final Gravity- The amount of sugar present in the beer after fermentation.

Degree Plato –

Brix –The sugar content of an aqueous solution ( 1 degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in a 100 gram solution)

Batching – Taking malt from the silo’s to the batching bins

Real Degree of Fermentation -
