Occasionally, I need to measure the pH of garden soil. Ideally, I should use de-ionised water for this, so that the pH of the water doesn't influence the result. But I don't have any, and my freezer doesn't generate sufficient 'frost' to make it an alternative. What I'd like to find is a source of sachets of deionising resin beads, a bit like tea-bags, that I could drop into a glass of water and leave for a while, before removing it and using the water for my pH measurement. But I can't find anything resembling that on the 'net. Does anyone know if such things are available, and if so, where?
