Fermentation Activity: Units of Measurement
Decoding the Units of Fermentation Activity: What Do They Mean?
°P/h (Plato per Hour)
°P/h is a unit of measurement that indicates the rate of change in gravity, measured in degrees Plato per hour.
mSG/h (Milli Specific Gravity per Hour)
mSG/h is another unit used for Fermentation Activity. It converts specific gravity into a more user-friendly format by multiplying the gravity change by 1,000.
For example:
-
A change of 0.001 SG/h is represented as 1 mSG/h
-
A change of 0.00056 SG/h is represented as 0.56 mSG/h
This milli-scale format simplifies the reading by removing the need for multiple decimal places.
