Fuzion Digital Kitchen Scale 3000g/0.1g

Absolutely. With 0.1g precision, this scale is more than capable for dialing in espresso or pour-over ratios. Multiple coffee enthusiasts mention using it for exact measurements, and one reviewer even compared it favorably to their $300 jewelry scale. The fast tare function and quick response time mean it won't slow down your morning routine either.

This is the trade-off with the compact design. The scale is intentionally small and portable, which is great for tight counter spaces, but about 8 reviewers mention that larger plates or bowls can obscure the display. If you're weighing directly into a wide container, you might need to peek underneath or use the included tray. For smaller vessels like espresso cups or portafilters, it's not an issue at all.

While it's advertised with 0.1g precision, one reviewer noted it doesn't register measurements under 0.5g. This means it's perfect for coffee dosing (15-20g range) or weighing tea (5-10g), but if you need to measure truly tiny amounts like spice pinches or single coffee beans, it might not pick them up. For most kitchen and brewing purposes, this won't be a limitation.

Yes, batteries are included, and multiple reviewers mention they had it up and running in under 2 minutes. There's also a built-in calibration check function if you want to verify accuracy, though most users found it accurate right away. The buttons and display are intuitive enough that you won't need to dig through a manual.

Several reviewers specifically praise the long battery life, with one mentioning they use it daily and rarely need to replace batteries. The scale also has an auto-off function to conserve power when not in use, so you won't drain the batteries by forgetting to turn it off after your morning coffee routine.

For coffee, tea, and most small-batch kitchen tasks, absolutely. You can easily weigh a full bag of coffee beans or a standard bag of flour. However, if you're planning to weigh large mixing bowls full of ingredients or bigger batches, you might hit that 3000g (about 6.6 lbs) ceiling. A couple reviewers noted this limitation, but for precision work with smaller quantities, it's a non-issue.
