Coffee Scale, 2kg/0.1g Aluminum with Auto Timing, LED

M3 pro is perfect for my Flair Pro. I have compared it to several scale models from Ikape, Nutti and QP and it is by far the best fit. QP is the cheapest and has a lot going for it, but it’s slow, overhangs the tray, and is very light so when a button is pressed it jumps . Nutti is cute, but display is on the side and inconsistent sensitivity of its buttons is annoying. Two different models from Ikape - the larger one is too big for Flair, the smaller one, with rounded corners, is not bad but it does not have a flat bottom, - important for stability on the small tray. M3 pro is superior in may ways - it’s substantial, compact, bottom is flat, buttons responsive, display is bright and legible. Note that for the measurements you must position it so it does not touch anything on its side, not even charge cable, in my case inside but not touching Flair frame. I only use normal fully manual mode, but it has a couple of smart options that I do not care to investigate. Unfortunately it’s not waterproof like QP and Nutti, but it’s water resistant - the charger port is covered by the non-slip rubber cover, so protected from the spray. The scale itself is rebrand of one of many whitebird.cn models, just as MiiCafe and Ikape models, no matter the brand you get same hardware, and bucanim at this time has the best price for it. A solid choice so far, durability is yet to be verified.

I went through a bunch of scales looking for one that would actually start the shot timer within a reasonable amount of time after the first drip hits the cup. Despite claims all the others were 1g+ before the clock started which is a lifetime of drips if you're preinfusing and then ramping up. First, this scale is the first one that essentially starts the clock at the first drip (sometimes second if it's a small drip) so trigger has to be at .5g or less. There are others that claim this but this is the only one actually doing it. Second, and this was a massive bonus that came as a surprise, when it's in espresso mode it auto tares your cup and then auto resets after the shot it done. To explain: scale on. It tares itself to 0. Put cup on. It auto tares the cup to zero. Pull shot. It leaves the final numbers up for just enough time - probably around 10 seconds (I haven't timed it) and then resets everything after a 3second countdown for the next shot if you're pulling back to back. Looks hood, feels good, the silicone top pad is molded around 3 sides of the scale so it isn't slipping off like all the others that have it only molded down on one side. Like I said, if you're using this for espresso it's the one to get. Can't comment on how long it will last as I've had it for a week.

Works great as a scale (and I checked with calibration weights) but don’t expect to use the auto timer to time your shots. It doesn’t always trigger so I don’t use it. Also a little clunky pressing buttons since the feet are not positioned far enough to the edge, so it rocks when you turn on, off, or tare. Otherwise I’m getting a lot of good use out of it.

I own many espresso scales from name brand to no name brands as this one... this one is my favorite and beats scales three times the price. If you are not looking for a scale that connect via bluetooth to you espresso machine you will be haooy buying this one

I was excited to get this and thought the price point was right. When using the tare button turn the machine off. I would need to turn it off and on again but with the same result. I returned it within 24 hours.

Absolutely love my new scale! The size was not a hindrance at all with my regular pour over set, and it does everything I need it to. Might convert it to an espresso scale later on but it’s perfect for pour overs!

Battery only last about 20~30 minutes and can't be used while charging. Also it's a bit small can barely hold the 300 ml Hario dripper beaker/serving cup coffee mugs hang off the edge

I've had this amazing little scale for about 2 months now and it's been it's made a huge difference in my ability to pull a great shot of espresso. I have an older ECM Giotto that doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the latest generation machines. The scale easily fits between the porta filter and the overflow tray of this semi-commercial machine. It tares to zero after you place your cup on it and it allows you to see exactly what your brew time and weight of brewed coffee is. You can really refine your shots using the basic scientific method of changing only one factor at a time and adjusting grind size and brew time as necessary. This is the best money you'll ever spend on improving the quality of your espresso shots! Love this thing! Buy one!

Perfect working so far
