The Salter 1089 Kitchen Scale is designed to eliminate the clutter of multiple measuring tools in your kitchen. By integrating a digital scale with a 1.25L measuring jug, it provides a seamless way to handle everything from flour and sugar to milk and water. The standout Aquatronic feature allows users to measure water-based liquids precisely in ml or fl.oz, removing the need for a separate measuring jug. For those who love baking, the Add & Weigh function is a game-changer. By using the 'Zero' button, you can measure multiple ingredients sequentially in the same bowl, significantly reducing the number of dishes to wash. The scale handles a maximum capacity of 5kg (11lbs) with precise 1g increments, ensuring your recipes are followed to the letter. Design and practicality are at the forefront of the Salter 1089. The included 1.25L bowl is dishwasher-safe (top rack only) and features an easy-pour spout for effortless transferring of ingredients into mixing bowls. The easy-to-read LCD display allows for quick switching between metric (kg) and imperial (lb/oz) measurements at the touch of a button. Built for longevity and convenience, the scale comes with a battery included (CR2032) so you can begin weighing immediately. To preserve battery life, the device includes an automatic shut-off feature that triggers after one minute of inactivity or three minutes of a static weight reading. This combination of precision, versatility, and thoughtful design makes the Salter 1089 an essential tool for any home cook or baker.
