Submitted by butterflygrooves on December 26, 2010 - 9:01am What would you get?Not to be ungrateful but I didn't get anything I asked for, which included bread making supplies, for Christmas. This year was full of random things... I did get a $25 American Express gift certificate though and want to use it for something bread related. What would you buy if you were me, an Escali scale or a bread making book? I really need a scale (I've been converting recipes to volume and guesstimating dough weights). A book would be nice but it's not necessary right now.

Escali scale!
Escali scale!
I just ordered...
the Mustard Yellow Escali scale! I've been wanting one for months and now I will have one!
Scale or Book
If you can get the Escali for $25, go for it, whatever the color. It is a great little scale. As for a book, you can get a lot of uncopyrighted recipes here as well as leads to techniques and internet videos, so you might be able to put off the book for a bit. Enjoy.
A good scale is an essential
A good scale is an essential kitchen tool. Once you have it you will wonder why you waited so long to get one.

Another vote for the scale
I would get the scale and try different bread baking books from the library -- they're all very different and it's good to test recipes and methods before buying.
Scale
I have the Escali scale and love it. I also bought the adapter to go with it but am using a battery right now.
Definitely a scale ...
I love my scale - my bread baking and confidence improved when I bought mine.
