Oechsle (abbreviated ° Oe)
Oechsle (abbreviated ° Oe) is t
Oechsle (abbreviated ° Oe) is the must weight denotes the weight ratio of one liter of must to one liter of water at 20 ° C, i.e. the density or the specific weight of a must. ht ratio of one liter of must to one liter of water at 20 ° C, i.e. the density or the specific weight of a must.
For example, if the weight ratio is 1.076, it is a must with 76 degrees Oechsle. The must weight primarily results from the sugar content, from which the later alcohol content in the wine can be derived. For example, a must with 90 ° Oe contains 209 grams of sugar per liter, which after fermentation gives 12 to 13 % alcohol by volume in the wine.
