The following models are particularly suitable for measuring the dissolved solids (TDS) in coffee to determine or compare the strength of a cup of coffee. For roasting plants, the TDS% value is used to determine the solubility level of a roast and to control the quality. Alternatively the display can be switched to show Brix or the refractive index.
