Must weight
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Must weight is a measure of the amount of sugar in grape juice (must), and hence the amount of alcohol that could be produced if it is all fermented to alcohol, rather than left as residual sugar.
In Germany it is measured in degrees Öchsle and is an important part of the German wine classification. In France and Canada the measurement is in degrees Brix, and in the United States it is measured as specific gravity.
