Why Every Kitchen Needs A Kitchen Scale {An Ozeri Touch II Digital Kitchen Scale Review}

**Product received for consideration. All thoughts are 100% my own. 


When it comes to having a functional kitchen, one of the most important things for any home cook is to have all the tools they need. That will vary from kitchen to kitchen depending on your style of cooking and personal preferences, but one great tool that many would agree is great to have on hand is a great kitchen scale!

But why is a kitchen scale important?

• Portion Control. Perhaps one of the instances in which you may find a kitchen scale most useful is when you are looking to lose weight or maintain healthy eating habits. You can know just what you're eating and exactly how much. Sure, there's always the eyeballing method, but I'll be honest... when it comes to servings I've found my ideas of what 'looks right' is usually more than what is actually appropriate. 
• Accurate Cooking Times. This is particularly true with meats. I always hate baking meats because I worry about getting the right cooking time to full done-ness. With a scale, I can more accurately know just how long the meat needs to cook.
• More Precise Recipes. With a scale, you can be more likely that you are getting just the right amounts of everything you need to get the same great taste every single time.

Like I said, a kitchen scale can be a very handy tool to have in the kitchen. But which scale should you go with? Personally, I am loving the Ozeri Touch II Digital Kitchen Scale:

• Industry exclusive scale features Microban antimicrobial product protection that helps prevent the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria.
• Boasts 2 touch sensitive buttons, 4 high precision GFX sensors, a large Blue LCD screen, and a capacity range of 0.05 oz to 18 lbs or 1 g to 8000 g.
• Award-winning thin design is infused with Microban antimicrobial technology to provide an added level of protection that won't ever wear away.
• Precision Tare button subtracts the container weight for the net ingredient weight; easy Unit button instantly converts between lb/oz, g, fl.oz., ml.
• Includes 2 Lithium batteries and an easy-access battery compartment (no screwdriver needed). NOTE: remove the battery insulating strip before attempting to use the device.

I absolutely LOVED this scale! First off, the blue color was absolutely perfect. My kitchen is full of fun and bright colors and it fit right in. In the past I'd been using an older analog scale. I still loved it and it was certainly better than having nothing at all, but it still left a little room for guesswork. This scale is insanely accurate down to the very last ounce. This might not be AS important with many recipes, but in my house I also use my kitchen scale for shipping from my business. For shipping, those slightest differences can make a big difference in cost... so having an accurate scale is even more important. And especially one that's very easy to read too!

But back to its intended purposes! Another important feature when being used in the kitchen is that it is easy to clean--- especially when using with raw meats. Now, typically speaking I will still put some wax paper or plastic wrap under the meats just to keep it easier to clean, but I love that this one has the Microban so I can feel a little bit better about knowing it's TRULY getting clean.

If you're looking for a great kitchen scale- whether its for cooking or for shipping, this scale is definitely one worth checking out.  Click Here for More Information  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BZE3WW8
