Using and Calibrating the Scale
Place the scale on a flat, stable surface. According to the supplied instructions, hold M until CAL appears, press M again, then place a 100 g calibration weight when 100.00 flashes. Remove the weight after PASS appears. Follow the instructions supplied with your exact model and keep the total load within its stated capacity.
Why We Like It
Its small footprint and cover that doubles as a tray make it a practical option to consider for small-batch kitchen projects. The gram display is useful when a recipe calls for weighing small quantities, but the stated resolution alone does not establish measurement accuracy. This is a measuring tool, not a claim about ingredient safety or a substitute for a tested recipe.
