Roger,
I understand your position Mine is that most people aren't up for making
large amounts, then taking a portion and sending it off for analysis. I
suspect most folks make a pint or so at a time and when they need more,
they make it. Most people probably don't have storage space for large
quantities. I suppose you make large quantities because you sell it. Correct?
What the PWT does is relieve them of that task and allows them to test EACH
and EVERY batch at their leisure. The PWT is really the best choice for
the average CS user/maker. It's quick and works. Like having a small,
relatively accurate lab in their pocket or a drawer.
And mixing unknown batches together doesn't tell a person what they
made. It's now homogenized; an average of all batches. Not good in my
mind for most people since they probably don't have too much uniformity of
procedure. You have to understand that all people aren't scientific. And
that's not a slam, just an observation.
And of course many people make CS that does not have much shelf life but
they still want to know the PPM at the time.

<< Hi Erwin,
For practical purposes the Hanna PWT works just fine. See our site for
info on test results using one in relation to atomic absorption test
results. Of course you can spend a ton of money to find out exactly how
strong your CS is but that seems a bit much for most folks. For under $50
you can make thousands of tests with this little toy. And it's repeatable.
Good luck.........

Trem: I'm not sure folks realize that they can save money in analyses by
making several batches of CS, mix them together, and then submit a single
sample for analysis. Recently, I make a 6 gallon batch that later analyzed
10.7 PPM CS. Since 1 PPM of my brew seems to work just fine, that's a lot of
CS for just 14 bucks or so for analysis plus shipping. Of course, it helps a
great deal if your CS has a long shelf life.
