<p>CSV import</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Oechsle Scale&#039;&#039;&#039; is a system used to measure the [[ripeness]] of [[grape]]s with the aim of predicting the potential [[alcohol]] content of the resulting [[wine]]. It was named after its developer, a German physicist named [[Ferdinand Oechsle]] (1774-1852). The Oechsle Scale measures the density of grape must, which is a direct way of assessing the sugar content of grapes, thereby indicating their ripeness.<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> <br /> The Oechsle Scale was developed in 1821 by [[Ferdinand Oechsle]] and was officially recognized in Germany in 1898. It has since been used as a measure in the German and Swiss wine industries. The scale is based on the specific gravity of the must at room temperature, as compared to the specific gravity of water.<br /> <br /> == Measurement and Calculation ==<br /> <br /> The Oechsle Scale measures the weight of the grape must (juice) in comparison to the same volume of water. This is done using a specialized instrument known as a [[hydrometer]]. The reading on the Oechsle Scale is the mass of a certain volume of must compared to the same volume of water. <br /> <br /> The scale is calibrated so that 0 degrees Oechsle corresponds to the specific gravity of water. Each degree above 0 corresponds to 1 gram of sugar per liter of must. Therefore, a must with a reading of 90 degrees Oechsle contains approximately 90 grams of sugar per liter.<br /> <br /> == Use in Winemaking ==<br /> <br /> The Oechsle Scale is primarily used in the German and Swiss wine industries to determine when grapes are ready for [[harvest]]. It is also used to classify wines in these regions, with higher Oechsle readings generally indicating higher quality wines.<br /> <br /> In addition to its use in determining harvest times and wine classifications, the Oechsle Scale can also be used to predict the potential alcohol content of a wine. This is done by calculating the amount of sugar that can be fermented into alcohol.<br /> <br /> == See Also ==<br /> <br /> * [[Brix (scale)]]<br /> * [[Baumé scale]]<br /> * [[KMW scale]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> <br /> {{reflist}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Wine terminology]]<br /> [[Category:Units of density]]<br /> [[Category:German inventions]]<br /> {{wine-stub}}</div>
