digital scales

Mike,

I do have the Tor Ray scale and it works fine, but it doesn’t weigh in grams.  It also doesn’t let me weigh 10 lbs.  If I have a dough formulation that calls for 11 lbs. of flour, or more, then I have to weigh the flour in two containers.  I also need to take my smaller Taylor digital scale if I want to weigh something in grams at market and also need to take my AWS-100 to market if I want to weigh anything that is really small in grams or ounces.  Usually I don’t have to take my others scales to market if I just want to weigh ingredients for dough, but I wanted to let any members know that the Tor Ray scale doesn’t weigh in grams.

I'll chime in on the KD 8000... a great value & works well. Got mine from Brick Oven baking supply.

Thank you Norma for your answer. It seems as if the model I found - though similar in design - does measure in kilos and grams as well, where 5 kilos and 10 lb are the maximums. Are you otherwise happy with your scale? The KD8000 seem also very handy as some suggest, and does 8 kg and g, 17 lb and oz.

Mike,

I am happy with the TOR REY scale, but wasn’t happy with the WEBstaurant Store.  My TOR REY scale stopped working and I contacted the WEBstaurant Store.  They wouldn’t do anything for me and told me to throw the scale out because the technicians at TOR REY in Texas are of no help in fixing those scales.    I did call TOR REY in Texas then and they did get my problems resolved with my scale by sending me a used adapter after I spoke to them a few times.  TOR REY couldn’t even send me a new adapter because the WEBstaurant store wouldn’t even receive it for me to try.  I do like the WEBstaurant for other products, but the scale was a pain when the WEBstaurant store wouldn‘t do anything to help me get the scale fixed.
