At the beginning of the brewing process, corn is ground and then mixed with water. After one hour the starch is converted into sugar in the grain. The liquid produced, called wort is drained from the grains through the grain bed. collected after the first heat, Brandewie used Quick-Brix, the Brix of the solution to ensure that this transformation occurred successfully and the expected range test. The mixture is tested again after 10 minutes with the Quick-Brix to ensure that no less than 3 Bx barrels, equivalent to 1010's Gravity Dip. A measurement less the risk of extracting tannins from the grain, which can lead to a harsh taste in the brew. A few drops of this mixture can be changed at the Quick-Brick to the pre-boil gravity of the wort to be tested. Brandewie beer Smith used software, a pre-boil gravity provides objective can be achieved. If the measurement shows QuickBrix within a predetermined range, knows he Brandewie on the right track. If the test is disabled, although malt extract mixture back on track Brix / severity level.

Finally, the yeast is added to begin fermentation. During this process, the Quick-Brix is ​​used to ensure that the yeast by fermentation of sugar into alcohol. "Prior to the acquisition of Quick-Brix, sample in a test, pull glass and check with a hydrometer the specific gravity of my wort," said Brandewie, "would tell me about half cup of the pull wort and converts in a glass test and a hydrometer to float."

"Think most importantly, the QuickBrix saved me time," Brandewie further. The required accuracy is guaranteed, and large quantities of sample can be stored.
