To improve your coffee brewing, be it for flavour, intensity or measurable extraction, you need to measure your variables and make tweaks and changes accordingly. Brew time and brew ratio (ratio of water to coffee) are two variables that have the biggest impact here. Realising this fact, conscientious baristas both professional and amateur have started using scales and timers as a way to manage these parameters. A new breed of scale has emerged, specifically for coffee lovers, and it meets both the need to accurately weigh your coffee and time your brew in one device and the Timemore Black Mirror Coffee Scale does just this.

The Timemore Black Mirror Basic+ Coffee Scale incorporates all of the important basics that you would want for manual brewing. It has an easy-to-read built-in timer and a 2kg capacity scale that measures in 0.1g increments. The updated 2.0 model also measures and displays flow rate to help you if you're looking to really nail your pour-over technique. 

With all the basic functionality nailed down, the Timemore Black Mirror Basic+ Coffee Scale additionally boasts a 1600mAh rechargeable battery, whose USB-C charging port features a handy plug to prevent water from getting inside. It also showcases Timemore's classic minimalist design philosophy, being stylishly compact and inconspicuous but still durable, and sports a nano-tech water-resistant coating on its glossy surface. All in all, it's really the perfect scale for brewing great coffee.
