What's a good Ph tester to get ?

There are a few that have been tested by users and have been shown to give stable readings. This is one of the benchmarks for acceptability. There is a good thread in the brew-science forum covering this in some detail.

You want

• 2 point calibration
• Manual calibration
• Reading stability
• Replaceable probe
• Resolution 0.01
• Accuracy +/-0.01 *Not exactly true owing to some mathematical stuff*

I went with the Hach Pro+

I've not had any issues with the meter thus far. (At least none that I'm aware of)

Meter and solutions. (Storage solution is not needed for this meter)
