Having trouble calibrating this with distilled water. I am unable to see a transition "line" to adjust to and directions are unclear. Using for honey H2O %

So far, I cannot get it calibrated. They are sending a new replacement meter.

I found that it worked very inconsistently. I have tempered, ground, in every conceivable way and yet I cannot get a consistent shot. Sometimes that water is too little other times nearly any water comes out and than there are times when it comes out perfect, unfortunately this seems to be the least of the outcomes. I have thrown them away and started to buy my capsules from HiLine. I love my Inissia and wish there was a way to have a refill situation. I really like being able to refill and use my own coffee. Good luck to you.

There should be a packet of powder that you add to distilled water. Then turn on PH meter, and dip into solution. Hit and hold CAL until it flashes. Then pick the number that is closest to the solution you will be testing (4.0-acidic 7.0alkaline 10.0) then hit ENTER. When it's calibrated it will display END. Repeat once a month to ensure PH meter reads correctly

Interesting question. You might try the Taylor site. My past experience has been that the calibration isn't correct if it is replaced. My friend upgraded to this unit when his failed. I will probably follow suit. ChefAlarm by ThermoWorks - (Red)

I had the same complaint and an email to the company got only the same non-instruction sheet that came with it which was no help at all. I am using this (and loving it) the same way as I have every other steam setter: Put water in the cup to the line. Use distilled water only. Flip the switch on the steamer to the first line. Once it starts steaming move the switch to the second line. It should start making a clicking noise. Put one roller on and leave it for 15-30 seconds. Don't leave them on too long or they get soggy and will end up making your hair wet. If the roller is too wet, try shaking out the excess water. Take the roller off and roller up your hair. Put the cover over the roller. You can hold the cover over the steamer for a few seconds but I find it makes a crimp in my hair. I have fine hair that is hard to curl so I leave the rollers in for 20-30 minutes before taking them out. You'll have to see what works for your hair. Some suggestions: Don't use tap water. It will end up ruining the steamer. Don't leave the steamer in the water. Once you are done, turn it off and take the steamer out of the water. I also turn it upside and shake out any excess water. Hope this helps.

i use distilled water as i believe (do not know) that ph is 7.0 however the tester only lasted for 18 months.

Hey you properly calibrated it by using RODI water. You must put RODI water where you use it for the saltwater then just above it is a black cap an under the cap is a screw to calibrate it. So look into the eye part then adjust it to zero then it should work fine

Sounds like it's defective. I never really calibrated mine, but it seems to work fine. Sorry! Send it back

calibration solution is about 1oz and storage is very little I made up the calibration and stored it in the refrigerator for about a month then it became unstable and i got rid of it as for storage solution it was maybe 10cc and I have been using filtered water to store it in seems to be working very well...Good Luck

I have not had any issues, but the DW(Distilled Water) I use reads in the 0 to 9S range- which would show 0 on the mS range.

Mine works fine, also. I only use distilled water because it is "highly recommended" in the manual.

I found no calibration feature. You can contact the manufacturer and they will answer your question further.

there are instructions on the side of the bottle. I have never followed them - just use common sense. many times have just added an ounce full strength and swirled it around - it will turn colors. put an ounce in and app 1 cup of hot water if you must mix it - that sounds about right - it is great stuff - works wonders . . . . .

I checked the users guide and do not see any information about calibration of the unit. There is a support number you can call.

I am back again, this is Loretta. I just read another post that said it was to be used every month or so. I will try to find the directions and get back to you. Just cked the directions. Apparently it is just to make sure it is within the numbers on the bottom of the test strips' box. I never did this. I hope it is. I will try it tomorrow and see if my results have been accurate!!! So I guess it is wise to see if the strips for the meter match up to the meter's parameters. I never really knew about this. So thank you for bringing it to my attention. And the solution does come with the meter. I am back again, this is Loretta. I just read another post that said it was to be used every month or so.

The instructions do not state what type of water. I use distilled so it doesn't get a build-up on the unit.
