Escali
Primo Digital Food Scale
A simple kitchen scale that weighs in grams or ounces. Good for someone who bakes by weight or wants to stop eyeballing portion sizes.
$25
This is a compact digital scale that weighs up to 11 pounds in 1-gram increments. It switches between grams, ounces, and pounds+ounces, so it works whether you're following a European baking recipe or portioning out dinner.
The tare button zeros out your bowl or container, so you can add ingredients without doing math. It shuts off automatically after four minutes if you walk away.
Runs on two AA batteries. Not waterproof — the manual says to keep it away from moisture, so don't rinse it under the tap.
Why it works
- Weighs in grams or ounces — works for any recipe.
- Tare function means no container math when you're measuring.
- Shuts off automatically so you don't drain the batteries.
Who it's for
- Someone who bakes bread or cookies and wants consistent results.
- A cook tracking portions or macros more carefully.
What to know
- Not waterproof. Wipe it down, don't rinse it.
- Uses two AA batteries.
