Timemore Basic 3.0 Coffee Scale - Black

The Timemore Basic 3.0 Coffee Scale in Black is a compact, fast and highly capable scale for espresso and pour-over brewing. It combines a slim 20mm profile with a responsive digital display, real-time flow-rate tracking, coffee-to-water ratio guidance and three timer modes, helping you repeat recipes more easily and brew with greater consistency. The updated electromagnetic shielding also helps keep readings stable around espresso machines and magnetic coffee accessories.
