lol! They even sell a brix refractometer to measure coffee !

ROTFLMAO!!!  From your own link:

"So it is technically possible to use refractometers that read out in Brix (or any other scale) for coffee given that you have a refractometer with enough precision and accuracy (yes they are different!) and some basic mathematics skills. What you need to do is solve an equation relating Brix % to nD at a known temperature. Once you have nD you may then proceed to correlate that value to a TDS value using a relationship at that reference temperature. In summary: you cannot directly convert Brix to TDS. You need to convert Brix to nD, then correlate nD to TDS using ExtractMoJo or the much cheaper MoJoToGo on iPhone."

So your link not only proves that brix is not the same as TDS as you earlier claimed.  So you just provided the evidence that you were wrong earlier on that claim.

And if you understood what the link was saying then you would have known that they are using a brix refractometer to first measure the natural sugars in the coffee solution (brix) so they can determine the TDS as the quote above states!!!  So you just provided the proof once again that you were wrong, ROTFLMAO!!!  

You really should learn something about science before posting.  It would make you look at least somewhat intelligent if you did this!!!
