KitchenAid digital glass kitchen scale 11 lb, Black — rotating knob, liquid & dry measurements

KitchenAid KQ914BA is a digital glass-top kitchen scale with an 11 lb capacity, rotating control knob, and combined liquid and dry measurement modes for precise home baking and meal prep.

If you need a dependable countertop scale that reads both weight and volume, this KitchenAid model blends a tempered glass platform with a large display and tactile controls. The oversized rotating knob selects measurement units and doubles as the tare/power control, while the smooth glass surface resists stains and odors. It’s designed to simplify portioning, follow recipes that list volume or weight, and speed up prep without a bulky footprint.

How accurate is this scale for recipes and portioning?

The KQ914BA offers fine graduations suited for everyday cooking and baking: 0.1 oz increments for small dry amounts and 1 g steps for metric weighing, plus 1 ml precision for liquids. Its tare function lets you subtract container weight so you can weigh multiple ingredients in one bowl.

• Maximum dry capacity: 11 lb (5,000 g) with 0.1 oz / 1 g resolution
• Liquid capacity: 5,000 ml with 1 ml resolution; 176 fl oz with 0.1 fl oz increments
• Tare/add-and-weigh to accumulate ingredients in a single vessel
• Large 1-inch display for easy reading of results

What makes the rotating knob useful in a busy kitchen?

The oversized knob is modeled after KitchenAid appliance controls for a familiar feel: twist to change measurement units and push to tare or power on/off. That tactile control is quicker and less fussy than tapping tiny buttons, especially with wet or messy hands.

• Twist to cycle through grams, ounces, milliliters, and fluid ounces
• Push to zero the weight or power the scale on and off
• Ergonomic design reduces fumbling during multi-step prep

How do I care for the glass surface and batteries?

The tempered glass top wipes clean easily and resists staining and odors; hand-clean only and avoid soaking or the dishwasher. The scale runs on three AAA batteries that are included, and it will auto shut-off after about three minutes of unchanged weight to conserve power.

• Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly after each use
• Do not immerse the scale or place in the dishwasher
• 3x AAA batteries included; auto power-off preserves battery life

Can this scale handle both liquids and solids for mixed recipes?

Yes—the KQ914BA converts between weight and volume so you can measure liquids in milliliters or fluid ounces and dry ingredients in grams or ounces. This versatility removes the need for separate measuring cups and supports recipes that specify either unit type.

• Switchable units for seamless conversion between weight and volume
• Able to measure liquids directly in a bowl or container using tare
• Useful for baking precision, keto portioning, and meal prepping

Who this is for: home bakers, cooks who follow mixed unit recipes, and anyone managing portions for meal prep or dietary tracking will find this KitchenAid scale helpful. It fits small kitchens, complements other KitchenAid tools, and offers clear, repeatable measurements for everyday cooking without complicated settings or fragile controls.
