jgoodrich71 Premium Member Jan 15, 2006 #2 You actually need a 7.0 and something higher (10.0) You zero it with the 7.0, then adjust the slope with the 10.0 That is for manual calibration. I have never used a Milwakee, but I know a lot of pH meters use 4.0 for an autocalibration. 4.0 and 7.0 would be used for freshwater manual cal. But for SW, the most acurate way is to use the 7 and 10.
