Definitely some aesthetic tax but according to Acaia the load cell they use is the type you’d find in a lab balance. That plus the water resistance, auto tare and auto start.
They are also “smart” scales, so have Bluetooth and connect to apps that record the flow rate and can save and load recipes/pour sequences. But as Hoffman’s video shows, they mostly work terribly, have really bad UI design and do people really want such complex features anyway?
So are the amped prices basically a reflection of water resistance/memory/yadayada for these things or is there a qualitative difference between these and what I linked to?
