  I don’t get the chemistry one

    I’m pretty sure he’s using a Brix meter, which provides a measurement in degrees of brix. Essentially lets the winemaker know how much sugar is in the grapes

      Slight clarification

      A brix meter measures soluable solids in the juice. A major portion of which is sugar.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brix

      Changes in Brix does not slways correlate exactly with sugar content as other soluable solids are included in reading. Things like like carotinoids etc. A little something to pay attention too when comparing varieties.

    I guess it’s the alcohol by volume, sometimes called “degrees” (in France it’s the most common term). 45 is quite a lot for wine though, but it could be for liqueur

      No. It’s “degree Oechsle”, a measurement for the sugar content of fresh grape juice

  45 degrees in Fahrenheit is above freezing point tho.

    I slightly like to exaggerate, a lot…

    45 degrees C is an average summer day here.

      Yeah I was tempted to comment on that too, 45 degrees in dry heat and under shade isn’t too bad.

    And I would’ve failed maths (even more than I did) if I’d called that wonky thing Michael’s doing an “angle”, let alone 45°, nothing is perfect in life.

  45 degrees in time is about 1:08

  What about kelven?

    Kelvin does not use the degree sign. Its simply “x Kelvin”.

    source

    • folekaule@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Because Kelvin is an absolute unit

    Tried, but things got so slow the picture hasn't made it here yet.

  That’s pretty high for grapes.

    Oechsle is sugar content. 80 is average for the less sweet breeds.

    source
  • JASN_DE@feddit.org ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    70 to 80 is the usual lower range.

    source

    • quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I guess I was using a different scale when I worked at the winery. Never saw anything above 20.
