We now stock an excellent range of specialised pH indicator strips and papers for wine making and brewing, or any pH test requirement for laboratory or research.

When wine has high pH values, bacteria grows more rapidly, resulting in problematic fermentations and high colour loss.

In brewing, the ph of a mash has an impact on the mashing process (the conversion of sugars)  as well as the taste of the finished beer. This is particularly relevant for all grain brewing. Mashing should take place at a ph between 5.1 and 5.5.  The specialised beer pH test strips are an ideal and cost effective way of testing your mash pH.
