The name of the store is BME, they are located on
University (the North Side of the street) just East of
280. They are tucked back, so it usually takes me a
bit of trial and error to find them.
They have my favorite pH papers (ColorPhast)

For sample extraction, there are two ways to proceed
- all require opening the carboy.
There is a device called the "Wine Thief" that works
well. It is a plastic tube with a one way check
valve at the bottom. It fits through the carboy
neck and allows a small sample to be quickly
removed. It is clear and black plastic. I am not
sure if there are any metal parts on the valve. One
of the nice features is the ability to touch the
plastic needle valve on a cylinder allowing the
liquid to be dispensed for your test. The other
nice thing is the remaining liquid can be dumped
into a glass for further testing.
Most wine and beer shops carry them.
Other location is the scientific supply company in
St. Paul. It is a real "dangerous" spot to visit
especially with cash! They are located on the north
side University Avenue just on the St. Paul side of
280. Sorry but I don't have their address or name
but the last name is "scientific." They have
Pipettes, microscopes, test tubes, glass tubing,
earlymeyer, beaker........... Like I mentioned,
really dangerous to the budget.
Best of luck.
