They come with a dishwasher safe plastic bowl, and require no batteries, so you can grab and weigh whenever you need to. And of course, because it’s a Taylor product, you can expect build quality to last for years. Save On Washing Up with ‘Add & Weigh’ These small scales have a big feature that’s often missing from mechanical scales – a tare, or ‘Add & Weigh’ function. This lets you zero the displayed weight between each ingredient, so you can weigh everything in one bowl. It’s a great help for busy bakers, because it will save time and means less washing up, too! To use the ‘Add & Weigh’ function, simply rotate the ring on the outside of the dial, until the pointer returns to zero. Easy. More Features Easy conversions No calculator required. These analogue scales display weights in grams and ounces, right down to the last gram / quarter ounce. This makes recipe conversions a snap.

Easy to store When it’s time to put the scales in the cupboard, simply upend the bowl over the main unit, and they’ll store way neatly.
