    Cleaning Conductivity Probe // Recent issue with readings...

    Is it safe to soak a conductivity probe in vinegar? Yesterday my conductivity started to climb, so I checked with refractometer and it was fine, but according to apex its still climbing, very strange. Normally the reading will just go out of wack, but for it to keep climbing is strange.

    Yes, though 50/50 mix with water is better for a prolonged soak. It is normal for readings to skew and climb after a long soak in vinegar and the calibration can often change after doing so. Wait until it stabilizes and then recalibrate.
