Red ale

Ease up there tiger. Have you bought one? My milwaukee crapped out on me last brew day. It’s less than a year old. My old one lasted 3-4 years before I replaced the probe and it never worked well again…so I bought this one…ph55 same model…it’s been hard to calibrate since day 1. I should’ve sent it back so my fault but thought it was working ok…

Then last brew day water read 7.2 out of the tap so I said…ok don’t need to calibrate it…it’s fine… my mash read 7.2…huh…checked it against some 4.0 solution…7.2…tried to calibrate it and it would never read the second solution…kept failing…

I’m looking for a new meter now too… I’m considering another milwaukee but a little higher end one with the probe on a wire kinda thing. Maybe if you pay more they last longer/work better?

Let’s take the meter discussion to a more relevant thread?
