Who it suits
- pour-over and espresso, where the dose and the yield are weighed in grams
- anyone who wants repeatable results, because the same recipe by weight gives the same cup
Who should skip it
- anyone content to brew by scoops and by eye
- wet counters without a scale that tolerates splashes
The thing worth knowing
Look for a resolution of 0.1 g for pour-over and espresso, a built-in timer and a surface that can take a hot server. Scales differ a great deal in how quickly they respond to a pour.

What we have not done
We have not independently tested this product. The description above is compiled from the manufacturer’s published specification and from what the category demands, and it is written to tell you who the equipment suits rather than to sell it. Where we have no first-hand experience, we say so rather than inventing a star rating.
