SWIM is still wondering if any of your spice extracting friends with a digital PH meter could actually measure how much lye would be required in order to obtain a PH value of 13/14 for the extraction of lets say 100 gr MHRB.

The tricky part of this question is that SWIM doens't actually know if there's any differences between different brands of lye (i.e. brand A would require 50 grams while brand B would required 80 grams in order to have the same effect on the PH value).

The thing is that SWIM doesn't like to buy a digital PH meter and use it one time only...

Hope you can help him out

[QUOTE="Eagerfish, post: 3237120, member: 1180"] SWIM is still wondering if any of your spice extracting friends with a digital PH meter could actually measure how much lye would be required in order to obtain a PH value of 13/14 for the extraction of lets say 100 gr MHRB. The tricky part of this question is that SWIM doens't actually know if there's any differences between different brands of lye (i.e. brand A would require 50 grams while brand B would required 80 grams in order to have the same effect on the PH value).
