I broke down and bought a PH meter and I used it this past weekend. My question is when do you take the reading? I waited 10 minutes to take a sample. I cooled the sample down to 71 degrees and I got a reading of 5.4 but then the PH started to climb slowly. After about 5 minutes the sample got up to 6 so I added some more Latic acid to the mash to be safe. I was mashing 10 lbs of 2 row and 12 ounces of crystal 15.
