Full agree on the cheap digital kitchen scale. Eyeballing stuff often takes longer than pulling out the kitchen scale and measuring it out.

I use mine specially when seasoning meats, souring cabbage, making simple breads, and splitting portions to freeze. It's also handy as I'm trying to lose weight, it gives me a way to control how much potato/polenta/rice I'm eating per meal.

I used to hate my digital scales, I used them so infrequently that the batteries would be flat every time I pulled it out.

This bad boy is a game changer, and it was only a bit more expensive. You just spin the wheel to generate enough power for a few minutes -
