Two methods to measure Brix and HFCS. It is possible to measure the Brix and HFCS content either with a density meter or a refractometer. Both methods will give the same result if pure sucrose/HFCS content of a solution is measured. Brix Hydrometers are widely used for measurement of Brix.

Both NBS and ASBC converted to apparent specific gravity at 20 °C/20 °C. The ICUMSA tables are based on more recent measurements on sucrose, fructose, glucose and invert sugar, and they tabulate true density and weight in air at 20 °C against mass fraction.
18% w/w sucrose solution (18.0 g sucrose dissolved in 82.0 g distilled water at 20°C). • The temperature correction table is for a 20° Brix solution (not required for temperature compensated instruments). • Optional: a certified standard, sucrose or organic.
Table A2.2 Sugar content and density of saturated aqueous sucrose solutions as a function of temperature (Antokolskaya et al. 1964 ) . Temperature ( ° C) Sugar (g/100 g water) Density (kg/m 3 )
Brix reading expresses the soluble solids content of the solution in terms of a Brix value corresponding to a pure sucrose solution of the same specific gravity. The final Brix measurement of liquid packing media in canned fruit and similar products depends
This document provides a sucrose conversion table with refractive index measurements at 20 degrees Celsius that can be used to determine the percentage of sucrose (degree Brix), apparent specific gravity, weight per gallon in air, and pounds of solids per gallon for sucrose solutions.
