The last page of Turbo asks, "how to do you want to pay your taxes. the options don't include my method what do I do?

I want to pay my balance owed by EFTPS.

But the only options are in the picture.

Should I just click I'll send a check even though it is an ACH transfer?

After you make the selection "Withdraw the money from my bank account....", and choose the Continue button, you will see the agreement to grant permission to EFTPS to make the direct tax payment transfer from your bank account on your behalf, on the payment date you select. Note that the tax payment transfer date you select cannot be before the date you file.

Yes you can say to mail a check.  Then you can pay any way and time you want.
