Which digital scale to choose for espresso?

For espresso, we recommend scales with a high weighing accuracy of 0.1 g to accurately measure the amount of coffee and extraction. Scales such as Acaia, Felicita or Timemore offer accurate stopwatches, automatic shut-off and often the ability to link to a mobile app for real-time extraction tracking.

Which scale to choose for filter coffee and alternative brewing methods?

For filter coffee and alternative brewing methods such as pour-over or Chemex, it is important to choose a scale that allows for accurate weighing and has an integrated stopwatch to control extraction time. A scale with an accuracy of at least 0.1 g and a capacity of around 2000 g is recommended to handle larger quantities of coffee and water.

Are the scales waterproof?

Yes, some of the scales in our range, such as those from Brewista and Timemore, have a waterproof design to protect the scale from damage if accidentally spilt with water.

What features should a quality digital coffee scale have?

Quality digital coffee scales should have features that make it easy to prepare coffee accurately. Highlights include an auto shut-off function, a stopwatch, a tare function (to reset the scale), and for more advanced models, it can be useful to connect to a mobile app or Bluetooth to track extractions and save recipes.

How long is the battery life of digital scales?

Battery life varies by model. Some scales from Acaia, have a battery life of up to 20-30 hours, while some models from Hario can last up to 80 hours on a single charge. Most of the scales are charged via USB-C, which ensures fast and convenient charging.
