Oh, you're right - I hadn't zoomed in until you suggested it. As you say, this suggests that the meter is only intended to give a general sense of pH, rather than the fine distinctions (.1 or better) needed for making cheese. Still might be interesting to experiment with it just to see ...

I found a digital one.. wanna give it a shot as it aint that expensive ..so who knows  ;D

Even the good ones seem to fluctuate and I have my doubts that the soil PH meter will work - digital or analog.

But give it a try anyway - I'd like to know if it is an option... :)

I have an Extech PH-100 (http://www.extech.com/display/?id=14626). I think that it works reasonably well compared to its pricetag.

I use it for milk, whey and final cheese (just press it against the cheese).

:-)

$99  :o

That's MYR420 for me

That's hella expensive hahaha

Aw, but what price failure?  8)

I'll give it a thought ... but main problem isn't the money ..

I had a digital soil ph meter, it does not work for cheesemaking, it gave PH of 6.5 at all times.
Lazada is selling PH meter, they have several types for food, cheesemaking and water, maybe you can start there.

I would suggest the Hanna blue tooth ph meter for cheese but at 200 USA dollars it is quite expensive and in Malaysian dollars it must be outrageously so.

And I can tell you from experience it does not fluctuate at all.
