Cleaning pH meter
Did not want to hi jack your thread on pH meters.
How and with what do you "wash" the glass spear after use. The manual says -be extremely carefull - Not even allowed to wipe it with tissue.
TIA

I'm not sure what the right answer is - but I first dip it in acetone and dab (not wipe) it clean on tissuepaper, then do the same in distilled water a couple of times. Then its straight back into its storage fluid.

Ah yes - I was talking about the stabby meat probe type - I guess the glass bulb type is different.Bob K wrote:If you have the glass bulb type you should never touch or wipe it. If you are using for sausage making (cleaning off grease/fat residue) you can soak in in warm soapy water, rinse with distilled water, and store in storage solution.
My glass bulb type lasted almost 3 years using that routine
Bob K, I recently sent the following question to Apera Instruments:
And got this response:I recently purchased the Apera PH60S that I use for sausage. Works great so far, but I don't see anything about cleaning the spear probe in the instructions. How should the probe be cleaned?
Hi John, thanks for reaching out. You can always use distilled water. If the residuals persist, you can use soap water and a brush.
