A variety of apples were purchased and the brix, sugar content, was measured. The optical instrument has a scale of 0 to 31 and the higher the reading the sweeter the measured product is. Most products are from 11 to 15.Here are my measurements. I cook in the microwave for about four minutes.There is a large difference in sweet taste between 11 and 15.
