You already know some produce just tastes different. Sweeter. More alive. Like it actually came from the ground and not a warehouse.

The BRIXit Kit gives you the tool to prove it.

Using a simple handheld refractometer, you can measure the BRIX score of fruit or vegetable juice — a number that reflects the sugar and mineral density in your food. Higher BRIX generally means more flavor, more nutrition, and healthier soil. Lower BRIX means the opposite.

It takes about 60 seconds. No lab required.

What's inside:

• Handheld BRIX refractometer

• BRIX press coin for easy juice extraction

• BRIX reference chart

• Step-by-step instructions

How it works:

Pick your produce. Squeeze a drop of juice onto the refractometer's glass plate. Look through the eyepiece. The number where blue meets white is your BRIX score. Log it. Compare it. Share it.

Why it matters beyond your kitchen:

Every score you log through the BRIXit app becomes part of a growing dataset — built by people like you, for people like you. Over time, those readings reveal which farms, stores, and regions are consistently producing nutrient-dense food. Your shopping trip becomes a data point that helps your whole community eat better.

Who it's for:

The person who reads the label and asks where it was grown. The parent who drives across town for the good eggs. The cook who knows the difference and wants to stop guessing.

Refractometer, Vise/sap press & Brix Chart

The refractometer in our Brix Kit is currently the most accessible of tools available for discerning quality. While not a measure of nutrient density, it is generally understood that the refractive index, or brix, of a given fruit or vegetable correlates closely to quality and taste. Refractometers are an easy, low-cost test widely used among growers for whom quality is important. But you don't need to be a farmer - you can just as easily use a refractometer on produce you buy from the store to get a better undertanding of what you are eating, or who has the best carrots at the market.

The direct soil Electro-Conductivity Meter is an essential tool for the grower to have in their toolbox. Soil electrical conductivity (EC) is a measure of the electrical charge in the soil, where too much or too little can hinder optimal plant growth. The measure of conductivity provides a valuable indicator of soil health and the functioning processes foundational to crop quality and yields, plant nutrient availability, and activity of soil microorganisms. The EC meter provides the grower with a critical snapshot that underpins the health of their soil, and is useful for addressing shortcomings or adjusting strategies in the growing season.

This meter is rugged and reliable, and pocket-sized for easy transport and field application, offering quick and accurate readings. This tool features a stainless steel penetration probe for direct measurement.

Product Specs:

• Waterproof

• Replaceable 4.5 inch penetration electrode

• Automatic temperature compensation

• Manual calibration in an aqueous solution to a single point
