Highlighted Features
  • VACUUM SEALER COMPATIBLE: Our patent pending SteelPak bag is the ONLY metallized Mylar bag that works in all major vacuum sealers (without added attachments), as well as all other high-end vacuum sealers.
  • SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN BETTER THAN PLASTIC/POLY VACUUM BAGS: Independent testing (see images on left) demonstrate our SteelPak 4 mil. Mylar bags are scientifically 4500% more effective at blocking oxygen penetration than all leading poly vacuum bags (Yes, even “that” brand!)
  • MULTIPLE USES: Great for sous vide cooking, boiling, refrigeration or freezing (for long term storage). Not for microwave use.
  • ENGINEERED FOR FOOD SAFETY AND LONG-TERM STORAGE: Textured on one side and smooth finish on the other to allow for maximum air removal to provide longer refrigerator and freezer storage life and protection from freezer burn (see comparison photo on left).
  • BETTER PROTECTION, BETTER VALUE: Don’t spend more for less protection – Our patented one of a kind storage bags combine the benefits of vacuum sealing with the protection of Mylar.

 

Vacuum sealing with a FoodSaver, Seal-a-Meal or similar is a great way store food, hops, grains, spices and more. Vacuum bags work to seal out oxygen, prevent freezer burn and more.

What Are the Advantages Mylar Bags?

Generally speaking Mylar bags consist of three layers. Two Mylar layers that laminate a center aluminum foil layer. This combination provides strength, flexibility and durability along with an extremely low Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR). These bags also block potentially damaging light. Combine this with vacuum sealing and you’ve got an outstanding way to store food & more.

Search Amazon for “food grade mylar bags” – to see lots of current offerings

For homebrewer’s… Vacuum sealed Mylar bags are an excellent  way to store hops and other oxygen sensitive materials.  As a testament to this, many hop distributors distribute hops in Mylar bags.  Sometimes those are vacuum sealed and sometimes they are nitrogen flushed.

Do Mylar Bags Work with FoodSaver Vacuum Sealers?

A FoodSaver (or similar) is a standard home suction type vacuum sealer that relies on special bags. We generally call them… vacuum sealer bags. These bags are embossed or textured to create channels on the inside of the bag. Those channels allow a FoodSaver to draw out air and create a vacuum all while the machine is clamped down. When this process is done a heat strip seals the bag locking in the vacuum state.

Mylar bags have smooth walls. Since they don’t have the required special channels they will not work with FoodSaver machines.

But, Wait… SteelPak Textured Vacuum Sealing Bags!

SteelPak has introduced a metalized vacuum bag that features an embossed/channeled design that allows these bags to work with FoodSaver-type vacuum machines.

Tare Function: Tare allows you to subtract the weight of the container you’re using to get a true weight of the contents.  Add your empty container to the scale and press the tare button.  This zeros out the scale.  Now add the thing you’re weighing and the scale displays just the weight of the contents of your container.  In my opinion the tare function is essential for any good homebrewing scale.

What I like about this scale… I like that this has the tare function and that it has a 1/100th gram resolution.  That means you should be able to use it for weighing hops, water salts, smaller amounts of specialty grains (200 grams is about 7 ounces) and other brewing ingredients.

Smart Weigh High Precision Digital Milligram Jewelry Scale, 20 x 0.001g, Calibration Weights and Tweezers Included.

More Info


Highlighted Features
  • MULTIFUNCTIONAL- Scale is able to weigh in various measurements, making it perfect for all your weighing needs! Weighs in g, oz., ct., ozt., dwt and gn. Whether you are weighing gold, powder, medication or anything for cooking this scale has the right measurements for you!
  • TARE FUNCTION- Scale comes with a tare function for items that are difficult to weigh and need to be placed in a container or on one of the weighing pans. Place your container or pan on the scale, press the tare function and then put your items in the container/pan.
  • ACCURATE- Utilizes high precision sensor system to get an accurate reading every time! This scale has a thousandth of a gram accuracy (0.001g) so it is extremely precise. This accuracy takes the guesswork out of measuring finer items, so you can just place the items on the scale and know that your reading is the most accurate it can be with this top of the line scale!
  • CALIBRATION WEIGHTS INCLUDED – Although your Smart Weigh scale will arrive calibrated, we have included two Smart Weigh 10g calibration weights. Should you notice any inaccuracies in your scale throughout your time using it, simply use these weights and follow the directions to re-calibrate it so you can continue to use your scale accurately!

 

Tare Function: Tare allows you to subtract the weight of the container you’re using to get a true weight of the contents.  Add your empty container to the scale and press the tare button.  This zeros out the scale.  Now add the thing you’re weighing and the scale displays just the weight of the contents of your container.  In my opinion the tare function is essential for any good homebrewing scale.

With resolution down to the thousandth of a gram, this would be a candidate for use with both hops and water salts.  Note that this has a relatively small capacity of 20 grams (about .7 ounces).

More About Centennial

Centennial hops are a balanced bittering and aromatic hop with a decidedly American nature and uniquely pungent flavor.  An intense citrus aroma with pronounced lemon notes also gives off some floral qualities that blend well with West Coast IPAs, American Pale Ales, and other hop-forward styles. Centennial hops are sometimes referenced as a super charged Cascade without the grapefruit flavors. Centennial hops also blend well with Chinook and Columbus hops.

Hop Statistics:
Alpha Acids:
 9.5 – 11.5%
Beta Acids: 3.5 – 4.5%
Alpha-Beta Ratio: 2.1 – 3.3
Cohumulone: (% of alpha acids): 28 – 30%
Total Oils in mls per 100 grams dried: 1.5 – 2.5
Similar Hop Varieties: Cascade, Columbus, Chinook

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

Cascade hops are the classic American hop that really started the hop craze. Defined by its citrus, and often more specifically grapefruit flavor, it is now sought out around the World. Cascade hops are a true dual purpose hop that can be used for bittering, at the end of the boil, or the fermenter. Used in so many craft brewed pale ales, but none more famous than Sierra Nevada’s Pale Ale. You cannot go wrong using Cascade hops in all kinds of American style ales.

More Info


Highlighted Features
  • PREMIUM QUALITY: Renowned as the leading manufacturer of digital scales, American Weigh Scales excels in precision innovation. With numerous models designated as Amazon’s choice, rest assured, we've got you covered for all your weighing requirements. Purchase confidently, backed by our ten-year warranty, ensuring long-term peace of mind.
  • ACCURACY: The LB-501 scale boasts a 500g x 0.01g capacity, ensuring precision with every weigh-in.
  • MEASUREMENTS: It measures in grams, ounces, carats, and grains, making it versatile for various applications, from weighing coffee and baby formula to cooking ingredients.
  • FUNCTIONALITY: This scale features a counting function, a tare function, a detachable dishwasher-safe bowl, and an AC power adapter. Another notable feature is the ability to turn off the backlight of the LCD display for added convenience.
  • INCLUDED CALIBRATION WEIGHTS: While your American Weigh Scale arrives pre-calibrated, we provide two AWS 200g calibration weights for added assurance. If you ever detect any discrepancies in accuracy during use, simply utilize these weights and follow the instructions to recalibrate your scale, ensuring continued precise measurements.
  • BATTERY-SAVING FEATURES: Auto-off functionality conserves battery life, ensuring your scale is ready whenever you need it.

 

Tare Function: Tare allows you to subtract the weight of the container you’re using to get a true weight of the contents.  Add your empty container to the scale and press the tare button.  This zeros out the scale.  Now add the thing you’re weighing and the scale displays just the weight of the contents of your container.  In my opinion the tare function is essential for any good homebrewing scale.

What I like about this scale… I like the high resolution with a relatively large (give the 1/100th gram accuracy) capacity.  I like that it has the requisite (in my opinion) tare features and that it uses easy to source AAA batteries [Search AmazonBasics Batteries].  Given the specs of this scale, it should work for weighing hops, water salts, smaller amounts of specialty grains (500 grams is about 17.6 ounces or just over a pound) and other brewing ingredients.

2/8 9:30 AM Central; This is on sale for just $4.36. That’s a whopping HALF OFF and the best historical third party Amazon price I found, notwithstanding Lightning Deals or coupons. Shipping is also free to many US addresses with Prime Membership [Try Prime for Free] or a qualifying order. Prices and availability can change quickly Check product page for current info – More About Prices
