yea, but even though you had the 6.7 reading and it calibrated correctly this time, that doesnt mean necessarily that it will remain at that same PH as it ages i teh fridge. your previous post stated that as it aged or soured, its PH dropped significantly to 4.4. that right there would lend me to believe that it is NOT a good measure to calibrate a PH meter to. especially since milk does contain milk contains some form of h2o (Milk is an emulsion or colloid of butterfat globules within a water-based fluid) in it, wouldnt it also increase PH possibly as it is exposed to oxygen like our tanks water is capable of doing?

wiki states it is 6.4 to 6.8 Milk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The reduced pH from lactic acid accumulation denatures proteins and causes the milk to undergo a variety of different transformations in appearance and texture, ranging from an aggregate to smooth consistency.

Very interesting though. hydrogen peroxide has a PH of 6.2

UGH my brain hurts now.

Very intresting indeed, I don't see hyrogen peroxide changing at all.
