Description
xThe Escali Primo Digital Food Scale is a compact, easy-to-clean kitchen scale that measures up to 11 lb (5 kg) with 1 g / 0.05 oz accuracy, ideal for cooking, baking, and portion control.
Small but dependable, the Escali Primo blends straightforward two-button operation with a sealed display and rounded body that resists spills and wipes clean quickly. Offered in lively colors, this model gives precise readings in grams, ounces, and lb:oz, includes a tare function to subtract container weight, and shuts off automatically to conserve batteries. Its compact dimensions make it convenient for crowded countertops, small apartments, or taking along to food prep locations.
How accurate is the Primo for recipes and portioning?
The Primo provides fine resolution down to 1 gram (0.05 ounces), which is suitable for most recipes, portion control, and small-batch baking. Readings are stable and shown on a clear LED display so you can follow weights precisely.

- Resolution: 1 g / 0.05 oz increments

What makes the Primo easy to use and clean?
