It is nice that the necessary for the operation of batteries (1.5V AAA * 2) are included.
In the glass surface, the display and the touch operation three units is incorporated. The display is unfortunately not illuminated, but due to the size legible and reproduced thereon signs are clear.
- The left touch field is the on / off switch.
- The middle panel the TARE key (multiple use)
- The right touch button toggles between units of grams / Zentilter / deciliter to
The touch fields only work reliably if the scale is on a solid, level surface. Even the ground must not be a tablecloth or soft, otherwise the measurement results are falsified. This is not just beautiful, right in my view but no points deduction. Solid, level underground provided the touch fields are reliable.
Practically, the pull-out at the bottom hanger. Because the scale has the same permanent place on the wall and is immediately ready to hand.
The simple weighing:
Object placed on the glass surface and after approx. 1 to 1 1/2 seconds is certain the result. I find that quite quickly.
If you want to weigh a certain amount of flour, simply place the bowl on the weighing plate and await the outcome. A short press of tare, the balance then to zero. Prompt it is possible accurately to weigh only the pure product by filling. Very handy is the ability to weigh various ingredients in a whole process. For example, we want to weigh 100gr flour, 20gr sugar, 5 grams of vanillin, 200gr butter in a single operation. This simply means in this scale:
Up bowl - press TARE - 100gr flour pour - press TARE - add 20gr sugar - press TARE - 5gr vanillin pour - press TARE - Add 200gr butter - and you're done.
Even with many experiments, the scale was not to bring out of step. At the most, the display agreed with me times by only one gram not. This is to get over, because now I know not where it comes in the kitchen to exactly one gram.
With the right button you can switch between the gr / dl and cl as an output unit. I think this is questionable, since it works only in water or liquids, corresponding to the weight and the density of water. 1 liter of water was at 20 degrees Celsius and atmospheric pressure pretty much 1000gr or 100 cl or 10 dl. However, this is true in edible oils, depending on the varying density no longer (eg olive oil. 0.91g / ml, therefore, 1 liter of olive oil weighs only about 910 grams). However, the scale can not make distinctions between such circumstances and the conversion will fail accordingly. There are no configuration options to the scales, the result in the selection is flawed by cl / dl (weight naturally already) !! For olive oil, the volume deviation is already at about 9%.
Summary:
A beautiful scale that can meet your purpose of weight determination precisely and perfectly. The output according to cl / dl without selectivity on the specific density of the filled liquid I think sinnfrei and confusing. For a point deduction in the assessment.
