Hi C-H's,

As I have said in the past, you should not waste your money on pH 
meters as they require considerable care and knowledge on the part of 
the user in order to obtain meaningful data. I know how to do this 
(as I am sure Matt and a few others on the list do also) and I can 
borrow a $600 pH meter, buffers, calibration solutions, electrodes 
and all the rest of it any time I want. So what do I do? I use a 
piece of pH paper. No mess. No fuss. Near enough for telling me that 
the sauce I'm making is about pH4.0.
