So I bought myself a Milwaukee pH 56 and am really excited to try improving my quality by understanding/controlling the mash pH.
I believe I followed the instructions that came with the meter to calibrate it (I can post them if needed) but afterward I let it sit in the 4.01 calibration solution and the meter reads 3.91. Is that right? It sounds like I'm off by 0.10. Likewise when I move it to the 7.01 solution it was reading 6.89.
Before I calibrated it, it was reading exactly 4.00 in the solution so I'm wondering if I should've even bothered trying to calibrate.
I also read the sticky on here which is a bit more detailed and has a few more steps such as rinsing the electrode with DI water, so I may try that next time I calibrate.
