Hi folks - has anyone here used a salinity tester to measure the salt levels of a pepper mash (or anything else for that matter)? I'm mostly working with pre-made pepper mashes that are kept in quite a bit of salt (the manufacturer says 8%-11%), but I've found the salt level varies quite a bit from batch to batch, and from pepper type to pepper type. So using the same recipe can come out underseasoned, perfect, or too salty. I'd like to measure the salinity of the mashes I receive, and adjust the recipe based on the actual salt levels. I'd also like to be able to test the salinity of my final product just to ensure consistency from batch to batch.
Looking for recommendations for an affordable, but consistent/easy to use salinity tester!
I use a PH meter for testing acidity levels all the time, but not until recently have I thought to measure salinity.
Thanks for any suggestions!
