Vitafit 500g Digital Pocket Scale,Weighing Professional Since 2001, 0.01g High Accuracy Grams Scale for Multifunction: Lab,Food Kitchen,Coffee,Jewelry; Black

Digital Gram Scale

More Info


Highlighted Features
  • AMAZING ACCURACY CHOICE - Benefiting from over 20years scale professional experience, we make the digital pocket scale with best-in-class technology and expertise, and proudly guarantee weighing accuracy by 0.01g gram division up to extra-high capacity: 500g grams. Even at outdoors, the high precision for scale grams is still quite credible.
  • EASY TO USE - The gram scale utilized up-to-date digital technology, along with many friendly features, including: First of all, it is a real pocket scale specialized in pocket size by crafted hinge for conveniently open and close; along with the high-end stainless steel tray in comfortable size: 3.1x2.7in(78x68mm) for easily weighing; Power/Tare and Unit Switch by soft and Key buttons; 6 different weight units: g, ozt, ct, gn, tl, dwt and oz for versatile occasion.
  • SUPER HIGH CLARITY LCD - The digital lab scale grams analytical scale is equipped with super high clarity LCD by extra large size:1.6x0.8in (40x20mm) in blue backlit, specialized for easily viewing digits in any conditions, especially in sunlight and outdoors, and kept the same brightness throughout batteries’ lifecycle.
  • ORIGINAL DESIGN - The pocket scale is our original design with the idea: Anytime Anywhere for Any Tiny Precision Weighing. Our whole team sincerely wishes it is the perfect pocket scale not only for indoor weighing, but also the perfect and reliable for outdoor occasions.
  • BEYOND OUR DIGITAL SCALES - Our factory was established in 2001. Our first-class quality and social management system has been certified by ISO and Social Accountability. All Vitafit products are supported by our US customer service center in the heartland state Missouri. Vitafit: Inspired by Life, for Better Life.

 

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.

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.

More about Sabro™ brand HBC 438 Hops

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

For many years Sabro™ brand HBC 438 has been unofficially referred to as Ron Mexico due to its native US neomexicanus hop heritage, and was once one of the more difficult hops to get your hands on. It developed such a huge cult following in the brewing community that you can trace the recent boom in available neomexicanus hop varieties back to HBC 438. Sabro is notable for its complexity of fruity and citrus flavors. It imparts distinct tangerine, coconut, tropical fruit, and stone fruit aromas, with hints of cedar, mint, and cream. Sabro’s pedigree is the result of a unique cross pollination of a female neomexicanus hop. With a robust brewing performance, Sabro proves to be a strongly expressive hop that translates its flavor incredibly well into beer.

Vinnie of Russian River Brewing once used this hop in an experimental beer brewed for the National Homebrewers Conference, which was an absolute hit. We recently toured Russian River’s new Windsor brewery with Vinnie, and he still raves about this hop and will happily talk about the origin of the Ron Mexico alias with a Cheshire grin on his face. We think you’ll absolutely love this hop for brewing juicy, tropical pale ales and IPAs!

BULK Malt Deal at MoreBeer!

The screenshot above is from a prominent online homebrew shop. 50 lbs of grain was $80 (on sale). Shipping (to me, will vary based on location) is a whopping $88.62. That’s a total of $168.62! We can do better!

Get a Deal on BULK Grain!

When you purchase 6+ 5lb bags of the same grain MoreBeer will apply a volume discount. You can see this discount on each product page. Here is an example:

Malt Deal at MoreBeer! – choose 6 more 5lb bags of grain to see volume discounts

Get Free Shipping: Shipping is free with a qualifying $59 order to many US addresses

Example… Briess 2 Row drops to $7.65 when you buy 6 or more 5 lbs packs. Buy 10 x 5 lb packs and you’ll have the equivalent of a 50 lb sack of grain. With the discount this will figure to $76.50 AND that will include shipping to many US addresses.

Yes, free shipping works… FREE Shipping DOES Work. I periodically get questions/concerns when I post this workaround, please read… Although bags of grain do not ship under MoreBeer’s free shipping program… this is a loophole of sorts. 5 and 10 lb bags do ship for free. If you use this technique you will receive 5 x 10 lb bags of grain, not a single 50 lb sack.

Hands on Review: Barley Crusher MaltMill

This review is by Homebrew Finds Contributor Michael Gom.  Read more about Michael below.

Note that this review covers both the 7 and 15 lb Barley Crusher Grain Mill

Hands on Review: The Barley Crusher

Having brewed all-grain for many years, I’ve spent lots of time refining my processes to try and produce predictable results. Things like brewing software make this much easier and do a great job of helping you calculate all your numbers. We can control how much grain we use and how much water, mash thickness, sparge volume, volumes going into fermenters, pitching rates, the list goes on. One thing I hadn’t been controlling, was my grain crush. When I had a local homebrew shop, the owner had no problem with me asking to double mill the grains to help get as fine a grain crush as possible while still not owning a mill. When he closed his shop, I was forced to start ordering my supplies online. Ordering from multiple different locations, having them mill my grain, it was obvious the variable that was changing was the crush size and I felt I was getting inconsistent results. Recently I purchased an all-in-one electric all grain system (Anvil), my brew days got much easier but my efficiency started to really suffer.

More about Sabro™ brand HBC 438 Hops

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

For many years Sabro™ brand HBC 438 has been unofficially referred to as Ron Mexico due to its native US neomexicanus hop heritage, and was once one of the more difficult hops to get your hands on. It developed such a huge cult following in the brewing community that you can trace the recent boom in available neomexicanus hop varieties back to HBC 438. Sabro is notable for its complexity of fruity and citrus flavors. It imparts distinct tangerine, coconut, tropical fruit, and stone fruit aromas, with hints of cedar, mint, and cream. Sabro’s pedigree is the result of a unique cross pollination of a female neomexicanus hop. With a robust brewing performance, Sabro proves to be a strongly expressive hop that translates its flavor incredibly well into beer.

Vinnie of Russian River Brewing once used this hop in an experimental beer brewed for the National Homebrewers Conference, which was an absolute hit. We recently toured Russian River’s new Windsor brewery with Vinnie, and he still raves about this hop and will happily talk about the origin of the Ron Mexico alias with a Cheshire grin on his face. We think you’ll absolutely love this hop for brewing juicy, tropical pale ales and IPAs!

TDS meters can are helpful for brewing if you’re using a RO filter or if you purchase RO (reverse osmosis) water for brewing.  If you’re using an RO filter a TDS meter tells you how effective your filter is and can help you know if your filters need to be replaced.  If you buy RO water, a TDS meter can let you know what you’re getting as some water processors add minerals back for flavor.  A TDS meter will allow you to make sure you’re getting what you want.

RO water can be built up to reflect the exact water profile you’re looking for.  See: Water by John Palmer and Colin Kaminski
