The Survey to Improve the CERA Website is now closed.  Many thanks to the 24 respondents.  We continue to welcome your ideas on improving the website and CERA's on-line presence.

I am currently compiling the survey results and will post them with my commentary by the end of the week.

Thanks again!

Here is the list of calculators from VinoEnology:

BrandTech Scientific

Hi folks,

I was wondering if anyone uses BrandTech Scientific equipment in their lab.  Their bottle-top burette seems incredible as far as not corroding from iodine storage and they also have a pretty cool single channel repeater pipette, akin to the Eppendorf Repeater Plus, but it doesn't have all those levers that we break off.

If you do use them, could you please let me know if you recommend the brand or not?  I'm quite interested, but not completely sold yet...

Thanks!
