    If you’re having a supply issue with finding a pH reader, it’s not so hard to improvise. Have a look around the garden and find some flowers that are red. And if you can’t find red flowers, get a few red cabbage leaves, and yes, I know that sometimes they’re almost more purple or blue. Harvest those red petals, and bring them inside. Take some of those leaves, and put them with some water in the blender. This is assuming that your water is neutral. You can use filtered water. once you have your coloured water, you can do a pH test using things that you know the pH of. Like lemon juice, for example. And you put a little bit of anything you want to test into a shot glass with the same amount of the test fluid with the cabbage leaf water in it. Notice that the colour of the sample changes pretty drastically when you add certain things to the liquid. So, given that you are very familiar with the pH of the substances that you’re choosing to test, you can use the colour index’s that you produce to figure out the pH of many substances. Choose a few different products like that that are around your kitchen and home or even garage, and the colours will act as an indicator of pH. You’re not stuck for the want of a scientific instrument here. I hope this helps somebody out.

  • @daphneraven6745
    @daphneraven6745 3 месяца назад

    I think this is an interesting project, and it’s a year old. One thing that some people advise, is that if you’re going to use that same mother to try to make a different kind of vinegar, that it might be good to transition it if you think you’ll have problems So let’s say you have a pineapple vinegar made, and you were going to use that same mother to make some other kind of juice; In that case, then you could have your mother and a little pineapple juice, and then slowly add a little bit of whatever other juice you want to have for that vinegar, and let it do its thing. Gradually increase the new juice so that the mother gets to adjust to the new substrate/medium; when you finally have it mostly the new juice-type of vinegar, then use and keep some of the mother for future batches this particular kind of vinegar.
