Can I get some thoughts on SO2 testing kits that are available? I'm on my first kit right now and will probably be kit only for a few years. However, I will eventually make wine from grapes (going to be planting around 30 vines next season). Until then I am planning on bulk aging everything and possibly going to be buying my first barrel pretty soon...so that said, my needs are not great right now, but I will be growing pretty quick and want something that is accurate, reliable, and won't make me wish I had bought something else or spent a little more money resulting in me eventually replacing it.
I was looking at the MoreWine MT140 Economy Aeration-Oxidation Free SO2 kit:

As well, the Vinmetrica units look interesting. I have a good pH meter already so probably the SC100-A is what I would need.
But, please any thoughts on any of the products on the market as I'm sure there are many I don't know about yet???
(I know I know, don't make any big investments until I know if I'm going to stick to it...but, I have been brewing for a decade so I'm already all in, the garage has been sacrificed to the fermentation arts )
