Do I need a kitchen scale for baking?
Yes. Baking is chemistry — measuring by weight is far more accurate than cups or spoons, and UK recipes almost always use grams.
What accuracy should a kitchen scale have?
1g accuracy is fine for most baking. For coffee and spices, a 0.1g precision scale is worth having separately.
What features matter most in a kitchen scale?
Tare function, a flat easy-clean surface, and a clear display. Avoid scales with too many buttons — simple is better.
