I Need A New Scale
I've used this Salter scale [1] for a long time.
I melted one once (yes, on the stove burner) and immediately replaced it with another, so I like it and recommend it.
But...
It's limited by an 11 lb/5 kg capacity.
That limit works for most things, but not for a mixer bowl that weighs 8 lbs/3.6 kg.It leaves me with a 3 lb/1.4 kg capacity before the scale says NUH! NO MORE WEIGHT!
Can someone recommend a scale the would be a fit, because I'm about to go nuts with all of the available options.
MUST HAVE
- - at least 25 - 40 lb capacity (+/-5 lb); 11 to 18 kg capacity (+/-2 kg)
- - metric AND imperial
- - digital
- - tare
- - weighs in 1g increments before 5 lbs. (this is the tricky one; feel free to move to NICE TO HAVE column)
- - weighs in 5g increments after 5 lbs.
NICE TO HAVE
- - volume (mL, fl oz)
Thanks!
