How much do you want to weigh ?? I use(ed) a bathroom scale till I
found out that every 5 gal bucket of apples weighed 30 lbs. Now I
don't need one for them. Once I used a big plastic tub I got from wall
mart to weigh them all at once (90 lb) using 2 2x4's to keep it up
enough to read it, but the 5 gal buckets work nicer. If your going to
want to weigh more than that, you should consider the headache of
lifting a bunch of weight up to a hanging scale & hooking to it or
having to hoist it up every time you want to weigh something. In
larger batches of wine as it appears you are into, accuracy to a pound
or 2 is all thats necessary. Don't sweat the small stuff, if you think
your close to what you want but not sure, throw in a coupla' more
pounds just for good measure. I've experimented with anywhere from 60
to 90 pounds of apples in a 60 gal. batch to see which would be better
& it was ALL good. Good luck.
