    for refractometer, the cheapest i found was on ebay i got the 0-32% ATC Portable Brix Refractometer Fruit Juice Wine for total of $32.60 and the Api test kit for $30 coming to the low low price of aboug $60! this was the cheapest i've been able to get, i'm trying to save money so this was much cheaper than dr. foster and smith, petsolutions, and marine depot :D
