Scales

Weight vs. Volume. Various factors can yield different quantities when measuring by volume, such as a cup of nuts loosely poured compared to a cup that is tightly packed with small or broken pieces. That's why weighing ingredients can make a real difference in the successful outcome of your recipe.

Good recipes are consistent. If you are a veteran baker, you know how important it is to be consistent in your recipes. And measuring by weight is, by far, a better way to be consistent than just measuring volume.

Consider the following factors in choosing a scale:

  • For greater accuracy in small quantities, and for greatest versatility, choose the electronic scale.
  • For regular kitchen use, a 6-9 Lb capacity scale will suffice on most tasks.
  • If you only consistently measure large items, like roasts, choose the 22 Lb scale.
  • If you're measuring ingredients for dietary needs, choose the electronic or the diet scale.

Great accuracy is achieved in scales with a balance beam or weights. Such pinpoint accuracy is not usually needed in food preparation. These scales are for domestic use, and not intended for commercial use.
