You can get all the values you need to plug into Brewfather from your local water reports that you can download free. Brewfather will then tell you what to add. Water treatment additions are really cheap from the usual homebrew stores. Much better than buying single use plastic bottles of water.

Cold Extract Coffee Filter Bags either 10x15cm or 15x25cm depending on hop amount. Good old Temu. 100 for about £1-3 depending on how many thousands of offers they send you via WhatsApp, popups, email etc!

I’m in 6 months with a lease car. Gone from £340/month in diesel to £320/month for a lease car and £0 spent so far on charging thanks to solar at home and free charge at work. Insurance included. Servicing included. Tyres included. 👍

BKT are selling off the Gen 3.1 35L at a steal just now....extra £40 for the accessory pack, including a paddle :) @Ray Porter

All the all-in-one's are pretty much the same. I currently use a Hopcat and get great results. You get lots of free bits with the Hopcat too. As far as improving your results, keep the brews simple, repeat one until you nail it. Only change one variable at a time. Get your water chemistry...

Nice one, cheers @Paul7189

@Paul7189 - I'm looking at this exact set up, the Duofiller and the ACS Pro. Your setup still going strong? Still recommend the Brewly can seamer?

Thanks for the comments guys, some very useful info. Liking the Adam scales @Sadfield. Will definitely look for something that can be calibrated.

I’m in 👍🍺

I’m in the market for some new scales after my old ones took a tumble. Interested to know what you guys use or recommend for your grain scales and also for your hops and water adjuncts. Cheers 🍺

Very much of interest, thanks!
