I.XXI Classic Coffee Timer Scale, Black VK1803090

I feel compelled to leave a review to help inform others who like me may hesitate to purchase this based on the poor review of another customer. To some extent they are right and their review is very useful for those who need precision: this is not a reactive, sensitive scale. If you need to be absolutely, 100% certain that you have weighed 15.4g of coffee (and not 15.5 or 15.3) for your espresso shot, this is not the scale for you. However, if like me you just need a cheap scale that is accurate enough to measure a dose’s worth of coffee beans, help make a good cup of pour-over, and can keep time, this scale is completely fine. It’ll do the job.

The rubber mat is nice and the scale itself feels fine, but I've never seen a scale this slow to update. The 0.1g accuracy is highly questionable, the numbers seem to only really update every 0.2g and even then they change if you take the cup off and put it back on. Spend a little extra on something higher quality.

2 stars because it's at least cheap and I can use it as a general kitchen scale, but stay far away for espresso or any coffee application really.
