pH testing

[bentalphanerd]

Are litmus paper testers readily available and where from?

Must be better to get a digital, but do they all cost US $100+ ?

Just about to try making first sauce, thought it'd be a nice gesture not to poison everyone

I have a digital pen type that was less than $40 even with the shipping. I ebay'd it.

my bid's in for this type of set up also! I wonder if I can get it cheaper?

 

[chilliman64]

$35.61 AUD including postage and buffer solutions - what a bargain!!!

I don't know what the major centers are like down there - Here they'll have a range of 3 or 4 chillies (large red, large green & large yellow and/or serranos that they call 'baby chillies') ...then they want $20 + /kg

I'm not far from the Brisbane Markets here, one place is advertising Habs & another asian wholesaler says they have an eight variety range,a few others just list chillies as part of their stock so will wait for wednesday.
