My water report has a pH of 7.4.
Just got my Milwaukee MW102 in the mail.
Noticed that there was crystals around the probe cap. Normal for the storage solution. Removed it (which doesn't slide off very easy by the way) and calibrated it to the instructions with the 7.01 and the 4.01 (or whatever it is) solutions.
Ran warm tap water for a minute into a glass. Stuck the probes in and gently stirred. 7.25.
Hmm, I thought. 7.25 vs 7.4 is quite an accuracy difference.
Recalibrated again with the solutions.
Still got 7.25-7.26.
So is my PH 7.26 or is it 7.4? That will affect my BrunWater input.
Edit, it doesn't look like Brunwater cares if my reported PH is 7.26 or 7.4. It's the Bicarbonate number that determines the Mash pH level.
So 7.26 or 7.4, doesn't matter, my reported HCO3 is still 128 either way.
