My oldest is into homebrewing beer when he's not deployed. He has the MW 102 from Milwaukee Measurements (had it delivered to the house while he was overseas last year and bugged me almost daily til it arrived).

Here's a link to the manufacturer's page:

It's on sale at this site for $90.95 with free shipping right now:

Hope this helps.

On the mead forum I browse, several have had luck with 'cheapo' meters.

They require a bit more care - you have to make sure to keep the leads in distilled water, and calibrate once a month or so. Someone said pool supply shops had cheaper calibration solution...
