A scale is good to have. I don't use mine much though. I really like having a grinder with a timer on it, it makes brewing so easy.

When I'm doing coffee instruction I always use a scale though.

Drummer Boy Quarters.

Supacool!

Since I posted this I've picked up the rest of the parallel widths. These are seriously fun pens.

I also love the cleanup ease of pourover coffee. That's how I do demos for the roastery. I don't have a vacuum pot cause I know I would never use it...
