What happened when we used it
By the ShopEssentialsHub team
We really love this scale. It's compact, accurate down to 0.1g, and very easy to use. The display is bright and clear, easy to read even in dim light. The manual and automatic timer modes are super convenient, and the auto power-off helps save battery. It comes with a silicone mat to protect the surface from scratches too which is nice. Wipes clean easily and we use it every morning.
It was the first espresso scale we owned, and we have used it daily for over a year. It weighs the beans going into the grinder and the shot coming out, and it fits on the drip tray of our Breville Barista Express Impress, under the portafilter. It charges over USB-C, so there are no batteries to buy, and a charge lasts weeks. We have not found a downside, and we would buy it again.
This is the one we’d buy again.

Light Roast on the Breville Barista Express Impress: Why It Runs Fast, and What We Did
