Frothbewithyou I have heard the Yuaga scales are your go to budget option. What’s the midrange go to choice? Is there a midrange choice or is it budget or go big?
You can get a cheap scale (~£10) that will weigh accurately to 0.1 of a gram. Pay a little more and it will also have a timer built in. Above that you can buy other features, design, brand name, build quality status symbols etc. You need to ask yourself what of these things you want and how much you are willing to pay for them.
Personally, after trying a few cheap scales (one of them Joe Frex, which looks exactly like the Yagua), I decided that a feature I want is that it won’t be prone to spills going inside where the electronics are. I got that by spending around £30 (Timemore Black Mirror from AliExpress). I am happy with them, though they are on the big-ish side. There is now a smaller (and more expensive) version: Timemore Nano.
It’s up to you to decide how much you want to spend and on what, but thinking you can’t weigh coffee accurately without a +£200 scales is like thinking you can’t tell the time without a Patek Philippe or do the school run unless you get a Maserati.
