I need a good set of Scales.

Hi guys can anyone reccomend a good set of scales for measuring out very small amounts. I have started treating my water and have to measure out like 3 or 4 grams of Gypsum etc .

Look online for the SALTER brand kitchen scale; really good for measuring small amounts (including grams)
Argos stock them I think...

If you search for jewellery scales on eBay you'll get a set for a few quid, the one I got weighs in 100th of a gram increments.

I use this one Although the postage has went up but you should be able to find cheaper.

If you can't find small scales, you could always just brew a lot more beer...

Them jewellery scales be what you want.

I work in the jewellery trade these will do the job. Don't buy diamond scales too fine for what you need.

I've got the very same set. Great scales for the price.

Buy a 300g weight to calibrate with

My Morrisons £8 ones are accurate to within +/- 1g, going by coin weights. Very impressive, but maybe not quite good enough for your water treatment measurements, though you could upscale and then dilute, for accuracy. I do that for nutrient measurements in yeast starters.

They look like the type of scales needed to weigh my brother. He's a behemoth... The analogue ones go full circle and tell him he weighs 8 stone... I think this makes him happy.
