the only thing i ever use a scale for - in fact -- about the only time i ever measure anything - is when baking -- especially baking bread...
I had a very old balance scale that used weights for balance.. and it was accurate, but not all that efficient, because you'd have to weigh the dish you were putting the flour into first.. the add in the flour... (if i wasnt paying attention, i'd often oops)
I now have a Salter digital scale, that's honestly bigger than I need - it's accurate.. but it's overkill... All I want to know is how much a pound of flour is on any given day.(Maybe I should just buy flour in one pound bags.
