Brix
Category: Food Trade
Definition (plain English)
A measure of soluble solids, commonly sugar concentration, used for juices, concentrates, syrups, fruit preparations, and similar food products.
Why it matters commercially
Brix affects specification, price, yield, labeling, duty treatment, customer acceptance, and whether the delivered product matches the agreed grade.
Example
A buyer rejected a fruit concentrate lot because the Brix result was below contract spec, changing dilution economics and finished-product yield.
Common mistake
Comparing price per drum without normalizing Brix, net weight, test method, tolerance, and whether certificates match the shipped batch.
