My wife has just given me a pH-107 pocket meter and it comes with two sachets a pH 4.00 and a 6.86 pH powders .
The instructions to calibrate are as follows.
Immerse the tester up to the maximum e immersion level in pH 6.86 buffer solution.
Allow the reading to stabilize and a just the calibration trimmer to read 6.9.

But this is where I need to know what amount of water to use with the buffer powder and what type of water to use.
Can some one please help as this tool sounds like it is going to be a big asset to me.
Thank you
Derek
 
Use pure water, and use the quantity of water stated by the packet, it should state a volume that you should use.
 
Thank you is bottle spring water ok? as our tap water is very hard.
 
No spring water is not pure water, distilled or RO water is the stuff you require.
