Wingman505 Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 My wife and I really want to find a high end scale for the kitchen. We search and are disappointed by what we find. I know you all love quality kitchen implements... Can you give us any suggestions? Do any of you have a high end scale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Are you looking for a scale for large quantities or small amounts? How accurate do you want? Modernist Cuisine has nice accurate scales for smaller quantities. Check Webstaurant.com for commercial sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 Many years ago I bought a Salter Brecknell scale. It is accurate and has severed me well. If I recall correctly it is accurate to 2 decimal places and will weigh I believe up to 5 pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 @Wingman505, as Tony's questions imply, it depends on what you need. I also think that "high end" and "commercial" may be mutually exclusive. We had a fancy pants scale for many years that irritated me by conking out periodically and not measuring above 5kg. This year The Husband bought us a new, very simple and cheap scale from a commercial supplier in the UK. It's advantages are that it measures more accurately, can switch between units easily and gets up to much higher weights. I use that alongside my "drug dealer" scales which measure small weights very accurately and help with things like yeast and salt for bread making etc. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 It actually is the nickname that I gave to the Tazmanian mountain pepper berries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
