Kitchen Scales
Kitchen Scales tend to weigh more matter than less, and most people favour maximum capacity over increment sensitivity and precision when it comes to Kitchen Scales. After all, it’s not that often that recipes call for 0.1g of an ingredient to be added in!
Whilst Kitchen Scales tend to be homogenous in this respect, they are heterogeneous in terms of aesthetics. Kitchen Scales come in all looks and guises, from the more traditional and less precise non-digital Kitchen Scales, which make weighing smaller amounts (for example, 15g) difficult, to the ultra-slim and snazzy kitchen scales. One aspect Kitchen Scales have in common in terms of aesthetics is that the majority of Kitchen Scales tend to be platform scales – quite simply, because platform scales can weigh more matter.
If you’re looking to buy kitchen scales, it’s worth basing your choice on the above criteria and look for Kitchen Scales that weigh in increments of 1g because you’ll get a much bigger maximum capacity that way. We have some great Kitchen Scales with a maximum capacity of 7000g, which weighs in increments of 1g.
