[Cellar_Rat]

ooooooooo want one. I will find out how much. But I do hope this is better that the richies kit - I have struggled with that in Red wines and ths fact this is pictured with white white scares me.

Well spotted. I was gonna suggest Brouwland as a place to look, given that they seem to sell a fair amount of Ebsloh stuff......

Ha ha! just under €600 - a bargain - NOT!

Dilute witrh distilled water till the red wine is a watery pink....

this will help you see the colour change better, and it will take the same amount of additive to neutralise the acid present, the distilled water makes no difference to the accuracy of the test

You can also titrate with a pH meter, if you have one. It eliminates having to "see" the color change.

Hmm. titrate with a PH meter - thats a v good idea.

Thanks
