Making a Standard % Brix (Sucrose) Solution

To make a Brix Solution, follow the procedure below:

Place container (such as a glass vial or dropper bottle that has a cover) on an analytical balance.
Tare the balance.
Weigh out X grams of high purity sucrose (CAS #: 57-50-1) directly into a beaker
Add distilled or deionized water to the beaker so the total weight of the solution is 100g.
Note: Solutions above 65% may need to be vigorously stirred or shaken and heated in a water bath to roughly 40°C (104^°F). Remove solution when sucrose has dissolved and allow to cool before use.
