This is a little off subject, sorry! I notice all the recipes using grams. I have a Pelouze 2.2kg postal scale:
Amazon.com: Pelouze Straight Weigh Postal Scale SP5: Electronics
It has a 2.2 kg capacity and can handle tare weights (so I can subtract the weight of measuring cups).
Is this an appropriate device for measuring food weights or do I need something else?
