I managed to break my scales over the weekend. So was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a good budget set

You... weigh your coffee?

Yep, the water too

Yes. Weighing the beans helps a LOT with consistency. Trying to measure them by eye can have you off by more than a third sometimes.

And weighing the water is convenient and easy if you're already weighing beans.

Wow, and here I am using the same size cup and scoop every time like a rube ;)
