That's a great peeler - I have one and it's great! Got a blender and a toaster too? If you like cooking, a motar and pestle can sometimes be handy, or some fun measuring spoons and metal mixing bowls - get stainless steel and not plastic. A pyrex measuring mug is useful too.
I do; pyrex jug or any microwave bowl, dishwasher takes care of it.
Bacon and scrambled egg toast sandwiches, 5 minutes. :-9
For liquids (which 'Europeans' do measure by volume as Americans do, but using metric instead of US customary units of course) Pyrex measuring cups/measuring jugs sold in Britain have metric measurements on both sides, unlike US measuring cups which only have metric measurements on one side, typically facing you if you are left-handed. They also have British imperial measurements (i.e. where 1 pint = 20 fl oz) but I totally ignore these since I basically never need to use them.
As for dry ingredients, they are specified by weight in European recipes (once you get above several spoonfuls) so you're best off just getting a scale; there is no real equivalent of American dry measuring cups made in metric quantities. I'm a fan of the Oxo pull-out scale, which will convert seamlessly between US customary (pounds and ounces) and metric (grams).
As for measuring spoons, tablespoons and teaspoons are for the most part almost identical worldwide, except for in Australia, as far as I know. 1 Tbsp = 15 ml = 3 tsp, so 1 tsp = 5 ml.
(A US tablespoon is technically 1/2 fluid ounce or 14.8 ml, but the difference between 14.8 ml and 15 ml is so small this is unlikely to make any difference whatsoever. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml or 4 teaspoons.)
Yep! I will let you know! Good question, bit of a long story! So initially I had no clue and just dumped all the water in at once straight from a standard kettle - this was 10 months ago when I first got my Chemex. It never tasted great but was half drinkable (that's me being generous haha). So then I wised up and started using a pyrex jug (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pyrex-Glass-Measuring-Jug-0-5L-x/dp/B000KGALJE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1483694300&sr=8-1&keywords=500ml+pyrex+jug), I think it's a pretty UK thing a Pyrex jug, but I could be wrong. Are you in the UK or US or where? With the Pyrex jug, I transferred the hot water into it from the kettle and pulse poured cause I'd been watching every Chemex video on Youtube haha. That made a half decent improvement, but the pyrex jug doesn't have a lid so there was a lot of heat loss before the water even got into the coffee grounds. Then, after I got my Baratza Encore and realised how important recently roasted beans were, I got a more precise electric kettle that boiled faster, but it was just okay - was pouring all in at once and stirring (see here as to why I stirred, it's Seattle Coffee Gear's video entitled "stir your pour over": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgsySaYHbLQ). It was a balance between reducing heat loss as much as possible whilst getting as accurate a pour as possible. Then I got the Hario Buono after I had little success with the normal kettle, and wow! Made such a difference, although initially I didn't preheat it. For a while I continued to pour all water in at once post bloom in a controlled manner and stirred a few times. Then I posted on here about having issues with under-extraction (having tried everything from grind size to ratio), and was recommended a pulse pour for more extraction. The suggestion was to change ratio and technique - see https://www.reddit.com/r/Coffee/comments/5jd0qd/impossible_to_get_even_extraction_with_kenyan/?st=ixlljihq&sh=b977d424 - Meth_PRN 's comment second from bottom. So I tried his pulse pour suggestion and pre-heating the Buono and it yielded great results after a slight tweaking of grind size! Same question to yourself? And what do you brew with? V60, Kalita Wave, Chemex or what?
