Hello I am
New to Brewing learning more everyday!!!
I wanted to start posting things here. My recipes I am tryin to organize. And I am always willing to listen to anyone’s advice to help me become better in this journey. 1757615012367.webp
 
Wrong section to post this in, but stop trying to do this density conversion bullshit. If it's a powder measure it in grams. If it's a liquid, use a graduated cylinder or a syringe and measure in mL.

I'd say it's way more accurate to actually weight it than trust your eyes for an exact measurement.
Does it really matter if it's just for yourself? No.
Is it more accurate? Yes.

Also, it is in fact the wrong section.

Most people do not have high precision scales that detect small changes in mass. Can easily end up off by multiple grams, especially with liquids.

That's just wrong.

If you're gonna invest in brewing equipment, a 10-20$ scale (for 20 you get a fancy one) is the least of your concerns.

Would I weigh clen on those? FUck no.

Would it be fine to weigh AAS raws and way more accurate than looking at a regular kitchen liquid measuring tool? Yes. By miles.

I don’t know what food scale you have but mine is pretty shit for detecting small changes in grams. Pour a little extra slowly at it takes a few grams to update. Just because a scale says .01g precision does not actually mean it’s precise at all.

Not what I use for brewing obviously

You don't buy food scales for this. How are we having this conversation?

Even if it is a foodscale and .1g precision, it's still way more accurate than your eyes and a measuring cup.

This is so ridiculously obvious wtf
I'm out of here.

It’s not .1g precious either lmao. Scales at that cost can easily be 1-2g off. You’re retarded.

Don’t forget, you actually have to calculate the density yourself as it changes with temperature. Good luck doing that with your $20 scale.

FFS you think a measuring cup is more accurate at weighing shit than a scale.

Oh my lord, another one to the ignored list, I can't stop myself from answering to stupidity like that.

If you think there are no scales for 20$ that are not off by multiple grams in quantities one would measure as a homebrewer, you can't be saved.

Does your measuring cup calculate density or what? What the actual fuck

Measuring cup = graduated cylinder apparently

It’s clear you’ve run out of ideas. Until you actually brew something yourself you should just stick to source reviews buddy

This is why you buy lab glass with accurate graduations and not kitchen toys.
Solids are measured by mass. Liquids are measured for solutions in the lab by volume (except for very specific cases of reactions where moles are important. There's no reaction here.).
Oil densities can vary slightly depending on many factors.

But most importantly, the oil is just a carrier - the end product is dosed per volume (mg per mL), and end user is measuring the product to pin by volume in the syringe. You should make the product by volume.

Said volume will also change for the end product, as it's also in said oil.

That changes the concentration, making it less accurate.

Anyways, just had a couple pints so I'm just gonna be off, fuck brewing anyways.
 
Once the solid is in solution, yes. It will.
You already answered by the time I could add some extra to that one, you're fast.

If we're gonna be technical, measuring your doses by volume is also an inaccurate way to administer.

Anyways, I'm just arguing to be technically right, I went a bit overboard, sorry bout that.

I'm actually out for a bit this time haven't had drinks for a while and me getting fucked up is really not helping anything or anyone here. Sorry boys, brb when I'm not useless.

thats wrong


my weight can go upto 1kg and have a accurary of 0.0001g

paid 100 bucks for it and i am very proud.

im not even a big time brewer. the other nerds in here have way more fancy equipment than me
