Ours are Elsay, selected by the Mrs who is very particular about such things )can’t seem to find them on google, they would have been bought in France so perhaps not available here)
We’ve used them to make literally thousands of loaves, cakes, biscuits, roasts… Basically they’ve been used daily for the last five years or more and have stood up to everything.
I much prefer them to the style with a disc surrounded by a lip as it works with broad based bowls and jugs or blobs of dough. They also beat the ones with the display in the platform as they’re more visible with big bowls on.
edit: …another recommendation would be that both of the bakery schools I’ve been to have had them as the scales to be used by the punters.
I have to admit to purchasing Salter Heston Blumenheck dual scales.
Has two scales, one for bulk ingredients with an accuracy of 1g and one for small weights accurate to 0.1g. The little one is useful when weighing yeast accurately for bread.
Come in a lovely box too.
some of us like baking cakes!
recently purchased some Soffritto scales notable for the bizarre idea that when not using for the intended purpose the display shows the time – reminder to designers: just because you can doesn’t mean you should
You google ‘kitchen scales’ and the return is mind boggling, the STW hive is always the place to go! It’s what the ‘Chat’ section is for surely? Anyway cycling and cakes go hand in hand …… unless yer really hardcore affleet?
….. that’s it, Neal’s envious cause he he can’t eat cake and win races! 😉
I have to admit, I will no longer tell somebody to google, because asking here tends to elicit far superior results (and I’ll ask about things I could google, because it will save me lots of time and keep people who like to display their knowledge amused).
Can’t you just stand on the bathroom scales, first with, then without the ingredients, subtract the difference and then argue about the pedals? The usual answer is “about 29lbs.”
