How to Choose the Right Kitchen Scale: A Quick Guide
To prepare a truly delicious lunch or dinner, all ingredients must correspond to the proportions indicated in the recipe.
An invention like kitchen scales will help you with this. If you still haven't got one, it's time to find out what you should pay attention to when buying kitchen scales.
The first thing you should pay attention to is the sensitivity or lower weighing threshold.
This parameter reflects the minimum weight of weighed products and usually ranges from 0.1 to 10 and even 100 grams. To determine which option is right for you, analyze what dishes you cook most often and what you usually weigh.
In addition, study such a characteristic as the maximum load, or upper limit.
In this case, we are talking about the maximum permissible weight that the device can withstand. In kitchen scales, this value can be from 3-5 to 10 kg. The indicator is also selected individually, taking into account what you like to cook the most.
Finally, be sure to familiarize yourself with the error of the scales - it can be from 0.1 to 10 grams or more, as well as the division value (measurement step) - from 1 to 20-50 grams or more.
Only if you listen to all the recommendations, you can be sure that the scales will not just decorate the kitchen with their trendy design or gather dust in the corner, but will become your full-fledged assistant in cooking.
