RE: [compost_tea] Oxygen Tests



False alarm.  This won’t work with compost teas as the

test relies on water being colorless which compost tea

isn’t.  Sorry.

I’ve been looking for a DO meter and re-reading some of the posts.

I’m not a scientist and I don’t think I’d care to constantly recalibrate

a DO meter as some on this list are doing.  In researching this, I’m

also hearing from you that these meters are pricey. 

 

I asked my club members if someone had a meter and one member

who’s retired from the oyster business loaned me his dissolved oxygen

test kit by Hach, Model OX-2P.

 

I’ve just read the instructions which seem straight forward.  The kit

looks easy to use. I phoned the manufacturer  

and had all my questions answered.  These kits only cost $47.75 and are

good for 100 tests.  Hach also sells DO probes.  They’re in Colorado.
