The method describes how to determine the viscosity of the laboratory wort using various kinds of falling ball viscometers.
Suitable for all worts and mashes
The amount of time required for a special ball to fall while sinking through a glass tube filled with a test fluid between two marks is measured. The precision of this method is increased if the time is measured using a photoelectric beam to an accuracy of 0.01 s, rather than manually with a stop watch.
Determination the viscosity in beverages
wort, beer, beer-based beverages, juices, beverages in general
The amount of time required for a special ball to fall while sinking through a glass tube filled with a sample liquid between two marks is measured. The precision of this method is increased if the time is measured using a photoelectric beam to an accuracy of 0.01 s, rather than manually with a stopwatch.
