  • 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?

  • So, having used a variety of scales in food production - baking mainly - the big differences you notice are speed and drift.
    Some scales are slow to react which is a pain when you’re pouring on and the scale keeps going after you’ve stopped. Also annoying when you’re trying to be quick.
    Drift is when you’re weighing multiple things and the measurement starts to move. Usually zero will start to measure above or below when you take everything off.
    Then there’s fine accuracy - which is obviously important if you’re dialling in espresso in gram increments.

    But the main thing is usability - once you’ve used a few different types of scales, you really appreciate ones that are nice to use, and you’ll curse the buggy ones.

  • Haven’t had those issues with mine, though I just set the grinder on the scale, tare it and add my coffee beans. Mine goes to a tenth of a gram which is accurate enough for my tastes.
