Love the 0-6 scale, ease of use and the amount of paper included in the package.

This pH tape is easy to use and works great. It is not difficult to read the tape strip. We make our own homemade Kombucha here and we bought it for testing it. Our pH tester (electronic unit) went belly up and we decided to give this a try before spending that much money on another electronic meter. We may never change back as this works very well.As it states, it goes from 0 to 6.0 for pH testing and there is a 15-foot roll. It comes wrapped in foil inside the container and you simply unwrap it, place it in the container, guide the strip out through the feeder where there is a tape dispenser area to tear off the amount needed for testing. Put it in the liquid needing to be tested and almost immediately you have your reading. So far we are pleased with it and it seems to be accurate because we pretty much know when our Kombucha is ready by tasting it, but this helps confirm it for us. I don't know how long 15' will last, but we'll eventually find out. Thus far we are pleased with this product.

This is very easy to use and it's easy for me to match the color of the strip to the color on the bottle. It changes color quickly. A good value. I purchased the ph range of 0 to 6 to check my fermentations. A smaller range would be better like a 2 to 5 as the color squares on the bottle would be bigger. It's good for beginners. It's helping me gauge a good fermentation.

I’ve used this for kombucha on each batch for a month. Since I only use a small piece it’ll last a long time. I haven’t compared it with others to test the accuracy. But from anecdotal experience the health of my scoby improved when I used this to get the ph correct (

Just got this little thing today and wanted to try it out. Im picking some animal skins and wanted to know if i was at a good ph. I dipped about a quarter inch of the test strip in and it barely changed color. (The strips are a light brown color which would be about a 2.0 ph. I know my pickling should be around that so i went to my coffee maker. The coffee was off the charts green so i knew it worked. As a nontechnical buffer solution i did research on the ph of 5% vinegar it should be around 2.4 ph so on the strip close to 2.5. I dipped a little strip in and quick checked it and it changed to 2.5 in color. So i know its accurate and i know my animal skin is at the perfect ph.I am really cheap as in i tare off a small pice and use a tweezers to dip it in what im testing. It works well because if you use your fingers it will read your skins ph.As for storage i put it in a Ziploc bag and then filled a coffee filter with kosher salt folded it up and put it in there too as a desiccant.It has an expiration date of 3 years from now which is good. How i use it ill probably have half the roll left and keep using it if the check with vinegar come up right.Over all im really happy with my purchase. I didn't want or need a SUPPER accurate one like at my work. The .5 increments was good enough for me.P.s. if you having seeing problems especially with the difference between orange and yellows this will be hard for you to use. The ph reading of about 2.0 and 2.5 look close to the same shade. For people with out color issues or who can see clear you should be able to tell. If this had a con that would be it.

It's good for fermentation. I'm making sauerkraut and the strip is showing around to just under 4.0, which is the ideal range for sauerkraut.
