So did anyone take home the Salt water sample and find their refractometer was off. Mine was spot on.

I'm very happy given my history with salinity snafus.

Well my old one was way the f' off. Problem was it was so old and so used the screw to calibrate it was rusted in there or something... if I had to guess I'd say a minimum of 6 thousandths off. My new one came, and it was calibrated poifectly!

However when Norman handed me that 2 liter my first thought was "WTF I need like a couple drops"

[/quote]No you need a couple of chugs, Norman's stuff is the kind.

Hehe... it's way easier to make an accurate standard when using large volumes
