1. Way first: classical Measurement of fortress of drink by means of the areometer for alcohol or, in the people, an alcoholometer. This device plunges into alcohol-containing liquid and shows concentration of the alcohol which is contained in it. Or, in other words, alcohol percent. This device has several types working in various mode and with various liquids. For example, винометр determines not only the fortress of wine drink, but also amount of sugar in it.
2. Household and bars areometers are good for use in house conditions - the first represent an instant mercury scale, the second are irreplaceable in measurement of small volumes. The optical alcoholometer has high precision in measurements of multicomponent alcohol-containing liquids whereas electronic and all above-mentioned devices are good only for alcohol or aqueous-alcoholic liquids. The alcoholometer laboratory is used in production, for measurement of amount of alcohol in various means for economic needs.
3. The areometer for alcohol is the device extremely fragile so demands the accurate address. When jolting and some other mechanical influences the device can issue inexact indications and as alcoholometers with a mercury scale are most widespread, their damage can cause leak of ""liquid silver"" and poisoning. just before use the device should be cleaned from spots and other pollution, to wipe dry. It is desirable to immerse the alcoholometer in the middle of a vessel with the measured liquid, without concerning its walls. For the most exact indications temperature of liquid has to be 18-20 degrees. The electronic alcoholometer will give practically at once figures, on mercury - it is necessary to wait when mercury accepts a steady position. Then on a scale it will be possible to determine the number of degrees or fortress of drink by marking.
4. Way second: obvious Each country has the form of designation of fortress of the alcoholic beverages produced in it. Some, for example, consider that the vkuso-aromatic bouquet of drink draws properties of drink much more brightly, and digital designation of fortress doesn't exist. In our country the regulations are less democratic: as a rule, on an alcoholic container at calculation of weight percents of alcohol the number of degrees is specified, at calculation of volume of alcohol - its percent in relation to the general beverage composition. Usually there are both of these options. So for determination of fortress of drink rather attentively to study its packing.
5. Way third: modern the Efficiency of an alcoholometer in alcoholic mixes is brought almost to naught and as the fortress of cocktails isn't specified neither in the menu, nor on glasses, it is only necessary to guess about it at the rate of the fortress of cocktail components. However it is possible to solve this problem by means of the online calculator of fortress of alcoholic cocktail. Having chosen the necessary ingredients, having specified their volume, it is possible to receive amount of alcohol (% of volume) in mix.
