Description
The SmartRef digital refractometer is a portable smart pocket device suitable for a wide range of requirements. In combination with a free mobile app, it offers more than 15 different measurement units. Measure the salt content of your saltwater aquarium or pool, the extract content of your beer, the sugar content in wine, the sweetness of fruits and vegetables, the moisture of honey, and much more.
Anton Paar produces high-precision refractometers for industrial purposes.
The SmartRef Digital Refractometer is the result of years of experience in refractive index measurement technology and reaches you compact and purpose-perfected as a pocket device.
Determine the precise alcohol content of fermenting or finished beer by using the measuring technologies of EasyDens (sold separately) and SmartRef in combination.
Smart device
does the math
Connected to your smartphone via mobile app, SmartRef shows results in more than 40 different measurement units – already temperature compensated.
SmartGuide+
intelligent guidance
An intelligent mobile app guidance enables maximum reliability of the measurement results through high ambient light detection, continuous check of prism and sample condition, and more.
High accuracy
Anton Paar precision engineering
The SmartRef comes with an accuracy of 0.2 °Brix and a measuring range of 0 to 85 °Brix. In addition to measurements in quick mode, the continuous measurement mode allows a more detailed understanding of the sample’s properties.
Data is everything
smart data management
Check your measurements via mobile app, where you can store, manage, visualize and export data to any other device.
Smart technology for consistent results
- The SmartRef portable refractometer is used in combination with a free mobile app for Android and iOS via Bluetooth Low Energy and enables intelligent handling of the measurement results.
- The app permits easy storage, visualization, management, and sharing of measurement data.
- SmartGuide+ detects and helps eliminate measurement problems through high ambient light detection, continuous checking of prism and sample condition, and more.
- In addition to the quick measurement mode, measurements in continuous mode allow a more detailed understanding of the samples’ properties.
- Over-the-air updates keep your digital refractometer up-to-date with the latest features.
SmartRef measurement details
- The SmartRef refractometer measures the refractive index of fluids. This allows retrieval of relevant sample properties in a wide variety of applications.
- Fast temperature stabilization and automatic temperature compensation for measurement results make additional calculations and correction tables obsolete.
- The unit has an IP66 rating and an easy-to-clean stainless steel sample well.
- SmartRef supports a one-point zero adjustment with distilled water and requires only a few drops of sample (0.4 mL).
- SmartRef displays results in under two seconds and has a measurement range of 0 °Brix to 85 °Brix with an accuracy of 0.2 °Brix.
- EasyDens only needs 2 mL of sample for testing.
High variety of measurement applications
- Brix refractometer: For honey, wine, juice, sauces, jams, fruits, vegetables, and maple syrup. The SmartRef measures the sugar content in °Babo, °Baumé, °Brix, °KMW, and °Oechsle.
- Salinity refractometer: SmartRef determines the salt content in your saltwater aquarium and pool in salinity specific gravity (SG 20/20), practical salinity units (PSU), and salinity in parts per thousand (ppt).
- Beer refractometer: SmartRef shows the extract content of wort in °Plato.
- As a smart device, SmartRef offers a constant expansion of measurement units. All available scales are provided within the app.

This is clearly the child to the superior Easydens. However, it does have an additional couple of important tricks up it’s sleeve. Firstly, when paired with the EasyDens it becomes an alcohol meter. For the combined price this is an absolute bargain. Secondly, as with any refractometer….its best placed to measure PRE fermentation. In finished beer, the inbuilt adjustments to not work and adjustments need to be made to get it to agree to the EasyDens as far as Gravity is concerned. For the price….this is it’s weak point. Nevertheless…..it’s Anton Parr and the build quality is outstanding.
