TA need not be difficult or expensive
You need only a syringe to measure out quantities of whey and NaOH, and you can measure it into any container, even a shot glass

I don't have my TA numbers on hand, but I use SH degrees because that's what I learned, and all the materials I have a listed in that. For this, we use a different strength of NaOH than you use otherwise.

Yeah, I use American Science and Surplus for a lot of cheap, decent supplies like this (in fact, when I used to play with TA, that's the setup I bought...since gave to my son's school, and this morning, bought again, lol). 

Do you use .11N NaOH?

trying to remember off the top of my head, for one you use .1N, for the other you use .4N, I don't remember which is which but I think .4N gives you SH degrees (Socklet-Henkel)

correction,

in the US you use DOrnic or %TA, and use .11 N

In Switzerland you use Soxhlet Henkel and use .25 N

1 degree SH is equal to .0225 % TA or 2.25 Dornic degrees, so you can use that conversion rate
the other way is, 1 degree D is 4/9 of 1 degree SH
