So for Christmas I got some gift cards and extra cash and am trying to prioritize what equipment I want to buy. I brew all grain and am pretty set as far as equipment goes. I am looking at more precise control over my process. I am currently thinking about two items:
1) Microscope or
2) DO meter
I currently have control over fermentation temperatures, a grain mill, a thermapen, a pH meter, refractometer, pretty precise hydrometers, a decent gram scale and I aerate with an oxygen tank that has a flow meter. I am leaning toward the Microscope for right now so that I can precisely control my pitching rate, I grow extra yeast each time and keep them in the refrigerator. Though the DO meter would be nice to know just how much oxygen I have in my wort. Anyone have opinions or can think of any other equipment that I might not be thinking of, but want first to gain better control over my measurables when brewing?
