which ph/chlorine kit is in the tftest kits?

[rastoma]

What the kit included in tftest kits for ph and chlorine? The one with the double plastic gauge?

Is it a Taylor?

That one is included, and it's made by Taylor, but you also get the FAS-DPD chlorine test which is a key piece. It's a color change test, from pink to clear, so there's no interpretation, and it can test chlorine, IIRC to 50ppm so you can see what's going on when you shock.

The one in my TF100 kit is as follows:

Taylor Basic
Residential Pool and Spa Test Kit (OT)
K-1000
Over 100 tests for Total Chlorine, Bromine, pH

Dave, you have the FAS-DPD test too, don't you?

As John T mentioned above...the key chlorine test in the TF100 is the FAS-DPD test. The Taylor k1000 measures PH and TC...but IMHO is good for checking the presence of chlorine not measuring the level ....can never tell the shades of yellow apart.

....can never tell the shades of yellow apart.

Me neither....

....can never tell the shades of yellow apart.

Me neither....

Yup...I've tried and tried but 1ppm looks like 3ppm and 3ppm looks like 5....funny though I can always tell the diff in my beer's color

Maybe we just need a new scale.

10ppm Guinness Stout
8ppm London Porter
5ppm Bass Ale
3ppm Amber Bock
1ppm Bud Light
