The °Plato scale is a way to quantify the concentration of sugars and
dissolved solids in wort. It is used as an indicator of the potential alcoholic
strength of a beer. The

converts the refractive index reading to
°Plato based on the tables maintained by the International Commission
for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis (ICUMSA) and the American Society
of Brewing Chemists (ASBC).
