HI981031 Beer pH Tester – Reliable pH Measurement for Brewing
Optimized for Mash and Wort Analysis
The HI981031 Beer pH Tester is specifically designed for measuring pH in beer, mash, and wort during brewing. Its built-in probe features a titanium body, flat glass tip, and renewable cloth junction, providing durability and precision even in challenging brewery environments. Brewers and quality control labs praise this meter for its consistent accuracy, long electrode life, and ease of maintenance compared to standard pH meters.
Enhanced Features for Accurate Testing
The visual stability indicator provides immediate confirmation of stable readings. An adjustable auto-off feature conserves battery life if the meter is left on accidentally, adding convenience and reliability for daily brewery operations.
Pocket-Sized Portability
Compact and lightweight, the Beer pH Tester is easy to carry around the brewery or during field testing. The large, backlit LCD display provides clear readings from multiple angles, while single-button operation simplifies workflow for brewers of all experience levels.
Long Battery Life
The included CR2032 Li-ion battery provides up to 1000 hours of continuous use. A battery icon blinks to alert when replacement is required, ensuring uninterrupted measurement.
Flat Glass Tip
The flat glass tip prevents mash or wort solids from accumulating on the electrode surface, making cleaning easy and reducing maintenance downtime.
Renewable Cloth Junction
The renewable cloth junction allows the user to refresh the electrode by extracting 1/8” of the junction to expose a new portion, extending the electrode’s operational life and maintaining accuracy.
Durable Titanium Body
The titanium body is virtually unbreakable, providing protection against accidental drops or impacts, making it perfect for the rough environment of a brewery.
Cleaning Solution for Brewing Deposits
The included cleaning solution is formulated to remove yeast, sugar, and other brewing residues. It cleans the electrode quickly and effectively, keeping the pH tester in optimal working condition.
pH 4 & 7 Buffer Sachets
Fresh single-use buffer sachets are included to ensure accurate calibration each time the meter is used. This helps maintain reliable readings and minimizes calibration errors.
Storage Solution
Specially formulated storage solution preserves the hydration of the pH glass while limiting organic growth, extending electrode life and ensuring consistent performance.
Q&A
Can this meter measure pH in both mash and wort?
Yes, the HI981031 is suitable for both mash and wort, as well as finished beer samples, providing accurate pH readings for all stages of brewing.
How do I maintain the cloth junction?
If the junction becomes clogged, simply remove 1/8” of the cloth to expose a fresh surface. This helps maintain accuracy and prolongs electrode life.
Is the Beer pH Tester durable enough for brewery use?
Yes, the titanium body protects the meter from accidental drops or rough handling, making it ideal for industrial and craft brewery environments.
Do I need to clean the electrode regularly?
Regular cleaning with the included solution is recommended to remove sugar and yeast deposits, ensuring consistent, accurate pH measurements.

Beer pH Tester - HOW TO USE
Preparation •Remove the protective cap. Do not be alarmed if salt deposits are present. Rinse the probe with water and blot dry. •If the glass and/or junction are dry, soak the electrode (bottom 4 cm /1.5“) in storage solution for a minimum of 30 minutes. Rinse with water and blot dry. •Calibrate the electrode before using. For best results is recommended to recalibrate periodically. Learn more in the Instruction Manual / Quick Start Guide
