    Selecting and Caring for pH Meters

    I use PH probes every day for work. Have been for 10 years. Store them in your ph 4.01 calibration solution (separate container like a falcon tube in a tray) and always keep them upright. You'll never have an issue if you follow those two rules!

    Anyone use Bentonite or Chillkleer?

    my cider is always crystal clear… i guess i thought it was always due to the enzyme..

    Anyone use Bentonite or Chillkleer?

    For best results it's done 12 hours before you pitch yeast. So if u use Camden tabs for example you would , add Camden 24 hrs before pitch, 12 hours later add pectic enzyme, and then 12 hours later pitch, I recommend 8a-8p schedule
