Questions & Answers

How do I find the best coffee scale for me?

Before choosing a model, consider what features you want in a coffee scale. Is a model with a weight display and timer for monitoring the amount and brewing time sufficient for you? Or would you also like to connect your scale to your phone via Bluetooth to discover new coffee and espresso recipes in various apps? The price of the coffee scale will, of course, depend on your preferences for design and functionality. With us, you're guaranteed to find the right model for your home kitchen.

What should I look for when buying a coffee scale?

To enjoy the best coffee or espresso, you should make sure that the coffee scale displays the weight as accurately as possible. The scale should display at least 1-gram increments. The scale should also be robust and waterproof so you can easily wipe it clean. Depending on the model, the scale is powered by a rechargeable battery or batteries. If you prefer one of these options, you should also consider this when purchasing.

What is the difference between a kitchen scale and a coffee scale?

If you're wondering whether you can simply use kitchen scales instead of coffee scales, we advise against it. Firstly, because the scale on a standard kitchen scale is usually less accurate than that on a coffee scale. Since the art of brewing coffee lies in precisely measuring the water and grounds, even slight deviations in the coffee dosage caused by inaccurate scales can affect the taste. Secondly, unlike kitchen scales, precision scales have a built-in timer, allowing you to conveniently keep an eye on the brewing time as well as the weight. In terms of size, a coffee scale is also the better choice for coffee preparation, as many models can also be used under a portafilter machine thanks to their compact dimensions.
