Anton Paar DMA 35 Basic - Reliable Alcohol Content Verification for Beers and Liquors

Accurate determination of alcohol content is essential for breweries, distilleries, quality laboratories, and regulatory compliance. The Anton Paar DMA 35 BASIC handheld density meter provides a fast, portable, and dependable solution for checking alcohol content in beers and liquors by measuring density and specific gravity directly at the point of production or inspection.

Designed for routine quality control, incoming and outgoing product checks, and on-site verification, the DMA 35 Basic combines Anton Paar’s proven oscillating U-tube technology with rugged portability, making it an ideal tool for beverage professionals who need trustworthy results without the complexity of benchtop instrumentation.


Why Density Matters for Alcohol Measurement

Alcohol content in beers and spirits is directly related to density:

  • Beers: Alcohol by volume (ABV) is calculated from original gravity (OG) and final gravity (FG). Accurate density readings before and after fermentation are critical for consistent beer strength.
  • Spirits and liquors: Ethanol–water mixtures have well-defined density-to-alcohol relationships. Measuring density allows precise determination of alcohol concentration (% v/v or % w/w).

The DMA 35 BASIC delivers precise density and specific gravity measurements that form the foundation for reliable alcohol calculations.
