Charging up what's going to be my new cupping scale. My old cupping scale sort of works except for the power button.
This is not something that I would have purchased for myself as it has far more features than a cupping scale needs (it has a bunch of modes geared toward timing and weighing espresso and manual pour over), but I also didn't have to pay for it since it was a sponsor gift connected to some teaching work.
My personal view on this sort of technology in coffee brewing is that it can be interesting for experiments and some kinds of training, but if you feel the need to weigh all your shots of espresso something has gone very wrong and it would be worth investigating better solutions to whatever problem is leading to that decision. (Unless your using it as a theatrical prop, which is a valid artistic choice even if it's not one I would make myself.)
