I bought one of these and you can calibrate it (by buying 4ph and 7ph solutions).
Works well.
You’ll need a ph meter like this one. Hanna Instruments HI98103 Checker pH Tester with Ph Electrode and Batteries, 0.00 to 14.00 pH, +/-0.2 pH Accuracy, 0.1 pH Resolution https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0085WOIMQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_1C5B9WJ4X81X24209CVQ
I use a Hannah Probe and stick it into the whey. The are about 30 bucks. Work very well.
Does anyone have experience with the Hanna Checker? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0085WOIMQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_t-yvzbW1ZC45W
