Greater Goods Espresso Scale 0483 review

A slim 0.1-gram espresso scale to 750 grams, whose lid flips over into a grounds tray.

Where we land on it A 750-gram espresso pad with a lid that flips into a grounds tray, six units including troy ounces and pennyweight — and no timer at all. For dosing beans it is excellent; for brewing a V60 it is the wrong tool.

What the maker puts in writing

  • 0.1 g (0.004 oz) precision · 750 g (26.5 oz) capacity
  • 5.7 × 3 × 0.7 in, with rubber feet
  • Lid covers the stainless surface and flips into a grounds tray
  • 6 units: g, gn, oz, ct, ozt, dwt · calibration possible

Built for one job, and honest about it

Three inches wide, seven tenths of an inch thick, 750 grams. That is a dosing pad for an espresso bench, and the lid-into-tray idea is the best small detail on this shelf.

It is not a brewing scale. There is no timer, and the capacity will not take a server.

The unit list gives it away

Grains, carats, troy ounces and pennyweight are not coffee units. The same maker’s other scale on this shelf offers milliliters and fluid ounces.

That tells you this platform was designed to weigh small dense things precisely, and then pointed at espresso — which it does well, within 750 grams.

What it gets right, and wrong

Strengths

  • The slimmest and narrowest scale on this shelf at 3 inches wide and 0.7 thick, which is what fits beside a machine rather than under it
  • A lid that protects the surface and then becomes a tray for loose grounds — nothing else here has one
  • User calibration is published, which only this listing on the shelf mentions

Compromises

  • No timer, on a shelf where six scales have one
  • 750 grams is the smallest capacity here by a factor of nearly three
  • Its six units are jeweller’s units — grains, carats, troy ounces, pennyweight — rather than the milliliters and fluid ounces a brewer would use

What people want to know

Why does it have no timer?

The listing does not say. It is built around dosing — weigh beans in, weigh the shot out — and most espresso machines time themselves. For pour-over, where the timer is the recipe, six other scales on this shelf have one.

What are gn, ct, ozt and dwt?

Grains, carats, troy ounces and pennyweight. They are jeweller’s and precious-metal units, which is an odd set on a coffee scale — the other Greater Goods scale here offers milliliters and fluid ounces instead, which is what a brewer would actually switch to.

Is 750 grams enough?

For a portafilter and a cup, yes. For a V60 on a server, no: a brew plus the glass runs past a kilogram. Five scales on this shelf take 2,000 grams or more.
