As someone who has been on that kitchen scale game for years with a much less expensive rechargeable body, I was hoping to get something much more convenient for making pour overs and other high precision kitchen tasks. I would say this scale performs excellently.
There are 2 key things that really justify the product for me: automatic ratios and timing. Makes playing around and dialing in those variables fun instead of annoying like using my other scale with my phone as a calculator/timer.
One other thing I’ll note to help any prospective buyers is how I incorporate this into my workflow which took some getting used to…
1) Start boiling kettle of water 2) Measure beans on scale with ratio set 3) Grind beans - while water still boils 4) Place French press or Pour over carafe/filter on scale and tare the scale 5) Add funnel and add the ground beans 6) Remove funnel and check weight of beans /water seems right 7) Begin pouring in the water according to recipe
This is a great scale. The brew assist feature is super helpful and intuitive. I have,however, got stuck a few times as my weights were lost after weighing my beans then placing my brewer on the scale, adding more weight, then pouring my grounds into the brewer before zeroing the scale to account for the brewer’s weight and being lost on my brew ratio. This would otherwise not be an issue but the brew assist feature has made my usual exact measurements entirely haphazard. I’m the problem here…I realize it. I’ll have to rework my work flow.
The best scale I have used for Pourover coffee making. Amazing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Purchased Tally Pro after using the Hario scale for several years for the Brew Assist feature. The scales is well built, easy to use. No longer use the Hario.

Great coffee and tea scale. This is exactly what I've been looking for. A bit pricey for a scale but personally, it works great and well worth it!
A real step up from my previous scales. I bought two. Love them.

This is the best scale out there really. Very user-friendly. Beautiful high-resolution display. Brew assist mode is fantastic and easy to use. Timer starts automatically when water hits the grinds. Very high quality. Solid and beautifully crafted. Aesthetically pleasing. Very precise and responsive. Best coffee scale available. (Better than those at higher price points even. Considerably better.) The design is great. User interface is fantastic.
I would recommend this to a friend!
