Description

APAX LAB TDS & Temperature Meter

The new APAX LAB TDS Meter: a redesigned pen that shows both the TDS and the temperature of your brewing water, so you can see what you brew with and improve it.

It measures the electrical conductivity of water and converts it into an estimate of total dissolved solids (TDS). Use it to check your base water, confirm your dilution and keep your water consistent from one recipe to the next.

What's new?

Temperature Reading

A dedicated TEMP button shows the water temperature, so you can make sure you're testing at the right temperature for a more accurate, repeatable reading.

Refreshed Design

A new black and gold finish, presented in an APAX LAB box.

Why use the APAX LAB TDS Meter?

Accurate & Reliable

Gives a quick, dependable TDS estimate from conductivity whenever you need it.

Consistent Flavour

Minerals shape clarity, sweetness, texture, acidity and balance in the cup. Knowing your TDS helps you repeat the water that works.

Confidence in Preparation

Ideal for checking that your water sits in your target range after adding TONIK, JAMM, LYLAC, KONFLUX or any APAX LAB custom profile to demineralised, distilled or low-TDS water.

Recommended use

  • Check the TDS of your base water before brewing

  • Verify your water after adding APAX LAB mineral concentrates

  • Keep dilution levels consistent and compare different water recipes

How to use

  1. Remove the protective cap and press ON/OFF. The display should read 000.

  2. Place the meter in water at about 25°C, no deeper than 5 cm.

  3. Wait 10 to 30 seconds for the reading to settle, then press HOLD to keep it on screen.

  4. Switch off, shake off or gently wipe the probe dry, and replace the cap.

Good to know

  • Do not use in hot water. For best results, test at around 25°C.

  • If a flashing x10 icon appears, multiply the reading by 10.

  • TDS is an estimate based on conductivity. It does not identify individual minerals.
