Scales

Weight vs. Volume. Various factors can yield different quantities when measuring by volume, such as a cup of nuts loosely poured compared to a cup tightly packed small or broken pieces. That's why weighing ingredients can make a real difference in the outcome of your recipe.

Good recipes are consistent. If you are a veteran baker, you know how important it is to be consistent in your recipes. And measuring by weight is, by far, a better way to be consistent than just measuring volume.

Consider the following factors in choosing a scale:

  • For greater accuracy in small quantities, and for greatest versatility, choose the electronic scale.
  • For regular kitchen use, a 6-9 Lb capacity scale will suffice on most tasks.
  • If you only consistently measure large items, like roasts, choose the 22 Lb scale.
  • If you're measuring ingredients for dietary needs, choose the electronic or the diet scale.

Great accuracy is achieved in scales with a balance beam or weights. Such pinpoint accuracy is not usually needed in food preparation. These scales are for domestic use, and not intended for commercial use.

Balance Beam Scale Instructions:

For accuracy, always place the scale on a level surface.

Before first use, make sure that the round weight plate and the scoop are evenly balanced without ingredients in the scoop, and with the weighted pointer on the zero. (If not, see instructions to re-calibrate, at bottom.)

To weigh less than 1 lb of ingredients, move the weighted pointer along the beam to the desired number of ounces, then add ingredients to the scoop until the scoop and weight plate are evenly balanced. To weight more than 1 lb, add the extra iron weight of the appropriate size to the weight plate, and move the weighted pointer along the beam for any additional ounces to be weighed, then add ingredients to the bowl.

To find out the weight of ingredients, place them in the scoop, then move the weighted pointer along the beam until the filled scoop and weight plate are even. If the filled scoop weighs more than 16 oz, you'll need to add the extra iron weight of the appropriate size and adjust the ounces with the weighted pointer.

Wash the scoop by hand, with hot sudsy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Keep the body of the scale clean with a moist cloth as necessary. Never soak scale or leave it in a moist place, as the iron may rust.

Re-Calibration

It's unlikely that the scale will ever need re-calibration, unless, for example, you start using a scoop of a different weight. Always make sure the scale is on a level surface and the weighted pointer is on the zero when checking for balance and when re-calibrating.

To re-calibrate, unscrew the flat round weight plate (turning it counterclockwise when viewing from above), and carefully remove it.

From the compartment, remove the small round pellets to lighten the weight-plate side, or add more to make it heavier.

If ever it is needed, a small quantity of extra steel birdshot pellets, preferably No. 7-1/2, should be readily available from a local rifle dealer.
