Max 55lbs

Well designed. Seemingly accurate and consistent. Great for grain and hops. After a few months I now find the 55lb weight max to be too limiting for my use. I need about a 70 weight limit to use for measuring water fermenter vols and keg volumes. So does the perfect scale exist? I don't m ow I'm still looking for it!

Great for malts and hops not precise enough for brewing salts.

I use it to measure my malts hops and when filling corny kegs but sadly isn’t precise enough for brewing salts.

Good range and good functions.

So far so good. Used the rare function with a variety of containers - sizes and weights. Very extensive weight range.

I wore my first one out and bought a second!

I like this scale. In addition to weighing out grain I use it for yard projects because it will weigh up to 55 lbs. My first one pretty much wore out so this is my second one. The best I can figure I had the fist one more than 6 years.

Real nice scale

Quite an impressive scale for the money. Heavy duty construction and very accurate right out of the box. No calibration was needed after testing. Used for weighing hops and rains and found it to be spot with both small and large amounts. Removable front panel is nice if you are going to weigh large items like 50lb grain sacks. Backlight with large display is easy to read even for us older vision impaired brewers. I would recommend this scale over some of the more expensive scales out there.

First one non-functioning on arrival replacement is great

The first unit I received didn't function properly out of the box. The unit button would only switch from the default oz. to lb. oz. then it would read large negative numbers and pressing any other button would power the unit off. The rest of the time the display would show gibberish as "numbers" (pretty sure it was aliens) show all of the units as "active" and didn't function at all as a scale. MoreBeer's customer service was great though! As soon as I told them about the issue they promptly shipped a replacement unit out free of charge. The replacement works perfectly as advertised. The reviews of this scale seem pretty positive so maybe mine was the anomaly. The size of the weighing platform is great for being able to measure out grains in a large enough container. The working unit is great for the price and I've had no issues with it.

Works great!

Love the option to plug in or use batteries. Seems very accurate and has multiple weigh options (Lbs grams oz etc). Would highly recommend. I can weigh grain and hops!

works great for weighing out grains

I keep this next to my bulk grain storage so weigh out what I need for my grain bill. Weigh the indivual ingrediants and put in a 5gal pail the day before brew day. I do wish the auto shut off timer was a little longer.

Good medium-duty scale

Accurate and reliable. I like the removable front display panel for weighing large objects though it's a little tricky removing it. Great for weighing grain and determining how much CO2 is left in tanks.

As well as PBW. Works great from pounds to grams. Also used to weigh mail and food.

Excellent and versatile scale!

I purchased this scale after my current digital scale failed on brew day resulting in using a small kitchen scale. I appreciate the ability to plug it in or use batteries the pill out readout for using large buckets to weigh grain. and the versatile options of units that use a separate button. Great purchase!

Perfect scale for measuring both hops and grain

This scale works well for measuring out hops and grain. The 0.1 oz resolution at weights under 2 pounds is great for hops and the 0.5 oz resolution at weights over 2 pounds is perfect for measuring large grain bills. The stability feature is nice letting you know when the scale has finished measuring. Overall a great addition to the brew kitchen.

The front control panel takes a bit of finagling to remove. With time I’m sure it will be easier. It’s easy to use and read. Looking forward to weighing larger grain bills for brewing.

Great scale

I have only used it once so far and it works great. It has a 10 year international warranty. The removable face is a great feature to have to see the display when your bucket is on the scale. The AC adaptor was included in the box as described in the "Key Features" listing (first line item).

Good value and work well

Never received the adapter but the scales works ok

It appears this was designed orginnaly for post office or paper and box weighting but as far as I can tell it works well with any object above 2 to 3 grams i did had issues weighting salts on this thing though so for smaller measurements below 10 grams better use something else.

Helpful

I've only used it once which was to weigh the grain for a kit I had lost how much it weighed I was ok with the hops because when I get a kit the first thing I do is mark the hops.I'll need to weigh the grain for my own recipes

Love this scale

I needed a new scale - one that could handle large capacities for grains and such. Love the ability to pull the readout bar forward when I have a larger container on the scale. One note: The description of this scale says that neither the C-cell batteries nor the power adapter are included so I purchased the recommended power adapter. When the scale arrived what was inside? A power adapter included in the box. Now I have two. Not sure if this is standard but if a power adapter is included with the scale then the description needs to be updated.

Works great for weighing the large base grain in a bucket.

Love it!

Works like a charm. Easy to use and large enough for what I need. (It will barely fit an orange Home Depot bucket but the common white Brewer bucket is a bit sketchy.) Works well for measuring gran or hops

Versatile

Accurate and fits my need when measuring out grains or hops for my brew day. I do 20 gallon batches so I'm not doing small amounts and do not have time to check it more than twice to keep it moving.

Works great! The product is accurate and I love how the screen dismounts from the scale of you are measuring a large object like a sack of grain.
