That pH probe is on sale, but I am going to pass on it for now, BRS runs sales all the time. I am going to try the Milwaukee Cleaning solution. I just ordered it from amazon for 14 bucks. Give that a shot, if that doesn't work, I will order a new probe and make sure I use the cleaning...

Finally was thinking of trying this probe http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-lab-grade-ph-probe.html Any thoughts on it?

In addition, I always store probe in storage solutions and always rinse with DI water when using

So, I have had my MW102 for just under 2 years. Been working flawlessly, and love having accurate pH readings. Just recently I noticed some long calibration times and very slow response times. So I did a little test. Fresh Calibration solution Calibrate pH meter. Then I test...

Would love to win any of those items :)

I just picked up my freezer last night. So excited about this build. As said before, this freezer (Igloo 10 Cu Ft FRF1050) will fit 6 ball locks on the floor with room to spare. I plan to have 5 taps and put on a 4" collar. The hump will be used for the CO2 tank. Here is the specs...

Not sure if this helps any, but here is my thread when I was deciding between the Hach and the MW-102. I ended up with the MW-102 and I am very happy with it. Also lower in the thread I posted an unboxing video of the meter: pH meter thread

Do you know how many ball lock kegs will fit on the floor?

Call me totally OCD and nuts, but I weight my water. Water weights about 8.33 pounds per gallon or about 2.08 lbs per quarts. I take my strike water volume calculated by beersmith, convert it to gallons, then multiply by 8.33 @ 70F (Density is dependent on temperature). Then I put a...

You may also consider the storage solution? People have been on the fence with that for the Hach meter. I have the MW-102 so I "Have" to use it.

I am very very happy with Milwaukee MW-102. Here are my posts regarding my meter purchase. (First post has a link to my unboxing video of the meter) Don't forget to factor in the cost of Calibration buffers into your cost. My Initial inquiry Stability Review -Craig

Hey, I have the MW-102 and looked at the 101. I am pretty sure you are NOT correct about how the manual calibration works. The manual calibration has to deal with the temperature of the calibration solution. NOT the pH of the calibration solution. The MW102 has a separate temperature...

I purchased from BRS. They just revamped their RO/DI Line of filters. You can mount this to a piece of plywood and it comes with all the fittings necessary to hook up to your utility sink: Here is an RO/DI unit (Similar to the one I purchased)...

Oh Right, what yooper said, Duhhh... you DON"T want to add alkalinity to sparge water. :drunk:

You said you added your salts before taking your pH measurement. But you didn't say WHAT you added or how much to what amount of water. Just what the previous poster said, RO water has very little buffering capacity and if you didn't add any salts to increase the buffering, you will see...
