    Default Refractometer Survey

    What is the best refractometer for the money or what is your favorite most reliable refractometer?

    I use a Milwuakee one.

    It's a great refractometer, considering 10 minutes after I bought it, I dropped it onto hardwood floors and it didn't break!

    I think this is the one I have (i am not home so i can't say for sure)

    though the handle is not rubberized on mine I don't think.

    Anyhow, i really like it, but I would like to replace the hinges on the clear plastic window as the actual pin seems to be rusting now. only on one side though, so I can only assume maybe a bad lot of pins or something.

    I have the same as the first greenmako listed (portable) and it works great. I think I picked it up for around $30 from ebay a couple of years ago.
