YINMIK Digital pH Meter for Food, pH Probe for Sourdough and Bread Dough, Checking The pH of Fermenting Sausages and Salami, Waterproof pH Tester for Solid and Liquid Soft Soil Sample…

Nice product. Must be calibrated before use. Pkg includes 3 reagents for the following PH 4.0, 7.0 and 10.0. This insures readings taken are accurate. Sensing bulb is glass and can be replaced. Covered with a screw-on cover for protecrion. Easy use, fast readings on a welm lite display. Design is ergonomic with robust case included.

Works as described. Good price and value.

Started fermenting, and this guy has been indispensable; really need one unless you want to risk dying. Easy calibration, straight forward, wouldn’t use it in a lab environment, but for fermenting this is perfect.

OK, here is a scoop on this HP tester. I thought that I would have a very hard time following instructions and doing it right (I didn’t want to spend a lot of money and not be able to send it back because I used it and didn’t do it correctly), so I watched a video online on how it was done using this exact tester. She made it seem easy and I watched it two or three times and then after feeling confident, I ordered it. I also bought the three bottles of solution instead of the packages, but packages do come with this testing kit. I wanted it in the bottles because it has to be stored in jars if you want to use it again and why buy the jars when I can already buy the solution in jars for a few bucks more. So now my hands are shaking, I’ve got my solution bottles open, and I’ve got the tester in my hand, and I tried to remember the video, and I did, (and I also had my distilled water and that’s very important. You have to buy that at the store or on Amazon.) So I had that handy. And then the instructions tell you just how to use the solutions. In my case it was 7, 4,10. I followed the directions slowly step-by-step, and it wasn’t hard at all. I was more frightened than actually doing it being hard. It comes also (this is important) with an acidity PH menu which I love. And it will give you the acidity of meats, fish, berries, baking products, cheese, vegetables, dairy without having to use your tester. my pre-mix solutions in the jars that I bought instead of the powder, comes with a solution that keeps the tip of your tester moist. So that’s an extra benefit. I have three esophagus ulcers that wants to rear It’s ugly head whenever I eat something that I shouldn’t, and I’m tired of suffering. I’m taking it serious now and that’s why I bought this pH tester. If you have Gerd or esophagus ulcers, you know what I’m talking about. It’s not fun. So I hope I have helped you because I did see in the reviews that this item I believe has been returned many times but then there’s a lot of reviews that are really giving up 100% which I’m giving thumbs up for as well, and I think the people who are the dissatisfied with it Didn’t really know how to do it. I probably wouldn’t have known how to do it if I hadn’t ever really watched the video. Just googl this model and you will see a girl demonstrate how to use this model and she is really great at it. So good luck to you, and I really highly recommend this . I also bought another tip just in case. I’d rather be safe than sorry if you know what I mean. And if you have to buy more powdered solutions, it’s pretty cheap or the bottled ones already pretty cheap too. I think it was $12. But it will take a while before you have to buy any more powders so you don’t have to worry about that.

Buscaba una herramienta que me permitiera monitorear la acidez con rigor técnico y este medidor digital ha demostrado ser una solución eficiente y de fácil manejo. Tras realizar varias pruebas de contraste, estas son mis impresiones: Precisión y Rango de Medición: El sensor tiene una sensibilidad excelente. Ofrece lecturas estables en pocos segundos, lo cual es vital cuando se trabaja con soluciones que cambian de estado rápidamente. La resolución decimal es adecuada para obtener un perfil de acidez detallado en diferentes medios líquidos. Proceso de Calibración: Este es un punto crítico en estos dispositivos. El sistema de calibración es de un punto es intuitivo. Incluye los sobres de solución buffer necesarios para el ajuste inicial, lo que garantiza que el equipo salga de la caja listo para ofrecer datos fiables. Compensación Automática de Temperatura (ATC): Cuenta con la función ATC, una característica técnica imprescindible. Permite que la lectura del pH no se vea afectada por las variaciones térmicas de la muestra, manteniendo la exactitud sin necesidad de cálculos manuales adicionales. Diseño y Pantalla: La pantalla LCD es clara y de fácil lectura incluso en condiciones de poca luz. El cuerpo del medidor es ligero y el capuchón protector del electrodo cierra herméticamente, lo que ayuda a mantener el bulbo de vidrio hidratado y prolonga su vida útil. Veredicto: Un instrumento de medición robusto y confiable. Es ideal para quienes requerimos un control de calidad estricto en nuestros procesos, combinando una tecnología precisa con una interfaz de usuario muy sencilla. ¡Cinco estrellas en funcionalidad técnica!

UPDATE: After my review was posted, the company did reach out to me and they sent me a full refund for this item. While I still would not recommend the tester, based on it's performance, I do appreciate the good customer service. Very frustrated. Received this product Oct. 30th, didn't start using it until late November/December, used it a total of 15 times. Tried to use it again yesterday and it doesn't work at all. It was showing an error code, but there's no paperwork with a "key" to tell us what that means or how to resolve it. Reading remains 0, regardless of what we do. For the amount we paid for this, we would have hoped it would last a good bit longer than a couple of months. We need it for our food business, and it's really let us down.

The meter is fine. One thing to be cautious, the pH solution not having the leak proof cap, once open, keep it vertical instead of putting back into the box. they leak and damaged the box and waste solution! updated: complained to seller, resolved! so I change it to 5 star for the customer service.

Works great, but I actually went back to the paper ph tester strips. The calibration directions were almost clear ( frustrating a bit) and the fact that you HAVE TO KEEP THE TIP MOIST AT ALL TIMES, means that if you’re not using it daily or weekly, you have to remember to re-moisten the sponge at the tip of the cap.

Easy calibration buy the £20ph solution box then just poke holes in seal, made job super easy, calibrated both and both read good results, five stars so far ,, time will tell

Super fantastic and easy to use. The set up calibration was easier than I expected. No more PH strip costs. Just batteries.

It’s not what I’d consider lab or commercial grade, but it will serve for hobbyists and home cooks. I intend to use it for nutrient solutions for my peppers and tomatoes. Maybe someday I’ll get a bluelabs or a Hannah. Until then, this is economical and seems accurate enough. I’d say calibration often and forget the last digit, and you should be good to go.

New to formentation, this was easy to set up and use ty

The meter is solid. Was game changer in my homemade mozzarella, as I can measure the pH of my curds now. The mistake was to buy this product, when there’s the same product with an extra probe for a little more money. That’s basically buy one, get one free. Customer service is non existent. It’s a Chinese company, and maybe they do talk with big customers, but us regular Joes don’t stand a chance , believe me I tried. Saw some comments about calibrating liquids and they work fine, tested with some strips. Just make sure it’s distilled water at 25c. For beginners: a pH meter like this is not like a thermometer. It’s a sensitive equipment that you have to take care of. You will need to think and learn about extra stuff like storage solution, regular calibration, distilled water, etc but trust me , depending on your need it really pays off ( like with my mozzarella)
