  • 【Stainless Steel Hook】: Crafted from premium stainless steel, the large and durable hook concealed in the back slot is convenient for you to hook up and remove from fish’s mouth, luggage and everything in between.
  • 【Endless Possibility】: The Dr. meter Electronic Fishing Scale boasts the specialized functions like weighing unit conversion, data lock, and auto-off function, definitely good news to the amateur and avid fishermen alike!

From HBF: Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

Possible Uses: Weigh kegs, propane tanks and bags of grain.  If you know the tare weight of the keg or a tank you can estimate how much beer or propane remains.  Tare weight would be the weight of the empty keg or tank – sometimes printed on the side, otherwise you can weigh it empty.  A good estimate for the weight per gallon of beer would be the weight of a gallon of water – about 8.34 lbs per gallon of beer.

This, in my opinion, has a huge capacity of 440 lb.  I also like the fact that it has the TARE feature.  That basically allows you to subtract the weight of your container.  I also like the fact that it features a remote display.  That means it won’t be blocked by something like a bucket that you may use to weigh your grain.

  • What’s the 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.
  • Things I like about this scale… It uses easy to find AAA batteries [Search AmazonBasics Batteries]. It has the Tare Feature.  That allows you to essentially zero out your container to get a true picture of the weight of the contents.  I also like that it has a stainless top.  Given the specs on this scale, it should work for grain, hops, other brewing ingredients and more.

Gram Scale Digital Kitchen Scale NEXT-SHINE High-precision Pocket Mini Muti-functional Pro Scale with LCD Display, Tare, PCS, Back-lit, 600g

More Info

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

  • Division: 0.01g (0.01 jump)/ 0.0001kg (0.0001 jump)/ 0.001tl (0.001 jump)/ 0.01ct (0.05 jump)/ 0.001oz (0.001 jump)/ 0.0001lb (0.0001 jump)
  • Function Buttons: Power/ Mode/ PCS/ Tare
  • Auto-Off: 90 seconds shut down when no operation
  • LCD Display with a back light
  • Power: 2 x AAA Batteries (not included because of inventory safety)

 

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 (1/100th gram) given the relatively large capacity (600 grams, about 21.16 ounces).  I like that it has the requisite (in my opinion) tare feature, that it has a stainless top 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 and other brewing ingredients.

A smaller scale can work for all grain brewers, as you can weigh any amount of grain in multiple batches, but if you’re a large batch all grain brewer or regularly brew all grain batches with larger grain bills you may want to consider a two scale approach, one more precise scale for hops and a larger capacity scale for larger grain bills.  A couple scales to consider:

Anvil Brewing Equipment: Inspired by Palmer, Built by Blichmann, and Made for You!”

The lineup includes kettles, propane burners, false bottoms, scales, thermometers and more.

Hands on Review Anvil Large Grain Scale

Get the Gear, Review Continues Below

cln_img_0726A look at the brushed stainless extra large weighing platformcln_img_0728The platform along with remote display unit.  The remote display unit means large containers will not cover up the readout.  It also has a long 6′ cable and mounting holes.  That means you can mount the display on a wall for easy access and keep the weighing platform on the floor.cln_img_0742Close up of the logocln_img_0732A close up of the remote display.  Unit button switches between lbs and kgs.  Tare button zeros out the scale, allowing you to get an accurate readings of just the contents and the On/Off button turns it… on and off. 🙂cln_img_0737Back of the remote display.  This is where you put the batteries in.  You can also see mounting holes should you choose to wall mount the control unit.cln_img_0735Along with having mounting holes, the remote display also has legs if you decide to place it on a flat surface.  This picture also shows the connection for the included power cable if you choose to use that.cln_img_0739A look at the undersize of the weighing platform.  The scale has four rubberized feet.  The feet move a bit to assist in leveling the scale platform out.cln_img_0740This picture shows one of the feet slightly angled.  I’m holding that down to show that the feet move.cln_img_0744This is grain scale and is not intended to weigh smaller weight items.  A Precision Small Scale is available to weigh hops and such.  At the time I took this photo, I only had smaller calibration weights.  Here are 4 smaller weights (a total of .4 kg) weighing out at .41 kg.  Poor little weights.cln_img_0812I sourced a larger 1 kg calibration weight for this review.  I want the caption on this photo to be… “That’s not a calibration weight.  This is a calibration weight”cln_img_0816Here’s the 1 kg weight reading… 1 kg.  Whammo.cln_img_0746One of the big benefits of this scale is the large weighing platform.  Here is a 6 gallon bucket on the platform.  Plenty of room.cln_img_0748With the bucket centered-ish on the platform, you can see there’s plenty of room.  Even if you used something larger than a bucket, you’d probably still be okay.  The remote display means you can continue to read and control the scale even when you’re weighing larger objects.cln_img_0808A side by side size comparison vs my previous grain scale.cln_img_0750Here’s the tare feature in action.  Weigh the container you’re going to use.  Hit the tare button and the scale zeroes out.  That allows you to weigh the contents without factoring in the container weight.cln_img_0833Weighing half of the grain bill for a small batch brew of Great Fermentations “Piney the Welder” kit.

Conclusions

The Anvil Large Platform scale was designed with home brewing in mind.  It’s well made, accurate and looks great.  It has some thoughtful touches and sports all of the features that an all grain brewer needs to easily and accurately weigh grain.

Dr Meter 110 lb Capacity Digital Hanging Scale [Weigh Kegs, Tanks & Bags of Grain]

[Backlit LCD Display] Dr.meter PS01 110lb/50kg Electronic Balance Digital Fishing Postal Hanging Hook Scale with Measuring Tape, 2 AAA Batteries Included

[Backlit LCD Display] Dr.meter PS01 110lb/50kg Electronic Balance Digital Fishing Postal Hanging Hook Scale with Measuring Tape, 2 AAA Batteries Included

More Info

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

  • 【Extreme Accuracy】: The Dr.meter Fishing Scale can weigh both small and large catches alike, from a mere 0.2 lbs. to a jaw dropping 110 lbs.! The state of the art weight sensor provides precise measurements and can convert from lb. to oz. or kg.
  • 【Bonus Built-in Tape】: Maybe you also want to know the length of your catch besides weight. We’ve got it covered! The included measuring tape is ideal for measuring items in either cm or ft. (up to 3 ft.).
  • 【Stainless Steel Hook】: Crafted from premium stainless steel, the large and durable hook concealed in the back slot is convenient for you to hook up and remove from fish’s mouth, luggage and everything in between.
  • 【Endless Possibility】: The Dr. meter Electronic Fishing Scale boasts the specialized functions like weighing unit conversion, data lock, and auto-off function, definitely good news to the amateur and avid fishermen alike!
  • 【On-the-go Tool】: Go easy on your hands even after long-term use. This lightweight and portable comes with a built-in carrying strap for easily carrying and using. Better yet, we’ve included 2 AAA batteries for your convenience.

From HBF: Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

Possible Uses: Weigh kegs, propane tanks and bags of grain.  If you know the tare weight of the keg or a tank you can estimate how much beer or propane remains.  Tare weight would be the weight of the empty keg or tank – sometimes printed on the side, otherwise you can weigh it empty.  A good estimate for the weight per gallon of beer would be the weight of a gallon of water – about 8.34 lbs per gallon of beer.
