A 2-quart plastic pitcher.
I use it at pretty much every stage of brewing.
When doughing-in, it helps me measure the right amount of strike water.
When mashing, it holds the spoon I use to stir the mash (so I don't have to set it on the counter).
When vorlaufing, I use it to, well, vorlauf.
During the boil, I fill it with sanitizer and use it to sanitize the spoon I use to stir while cooling.
I use it to scoop my spent grains out of my mash tun.
I use it to hold sanitizer while sanitizing taller, narrower items, such as my autosiphon or my turkey baster when taking gravity samples.
I use it to hold the excess beer after racking to a keg, then pour some beer in my hydrometer and sample the rest.
When taking the first pull from a keg that's been sitting for a while, I use it to hold that first few ounces that may be cloudy with yeast or sediment.
I use it to pour sanitizer over larger objects, or pour cleaning solution or sanitizer into containers like carboys or kegs.
It's just really handy to have kicking around during all stages of brewing.
