The Avanti High Capacity Digital Kitchen Scale is a versatile and user-friendly kitchen appliance designed for precise measurement of ingredients. Its primary function is to weigh solid items, but it also offers specialized modes for measuring the volume of liquids like water and milk. The scale is built for high capacity, making it suitable for a wide range of cooking and baking needs.
The core function of the Avanti kitchen scale is to provide accurate weight measurements. It operates in a "Weight Mode" by default, allowing users to place solid items directly onto the weighing area for an immediate reading on the LCD display. The scale supports both metric (grams) and imperial (pounds and ounces) units, with the default setting being metric. Users can easily toggle between these units using a dedicated conversion button located on the back of the scale, under the kickstand.
Beyond simple weighing, the scale incorporates "Zero and Tare Functions" which are crucial for measuring multiple ingredients consecutively without the need to empty the bowl after each addition. The "Zero Function" automatically activates when the total weight of the load is below 400g (or 4% of the scale's capacity). In this mode, after placing a container and resetting the display to '0', subsequent ingredients can be added, and the display will show the weight of only the newly added item. The "Tare Function" is similar but engages when the total weight exceeds 400g. It allows users to reset the display to '0' after placing a container or an initial ingredient, enabling the measurement of additional items. The scale also offers the ability to view the combined weight of multiple loads after using the Tare function.
A distinctive feature of this scale is its "Volume Mode," which allows for the measurement of liquid ingredients such as water and milk. After switching to Volume Mode and placing a container on the platform, the display can be reset to '0'. Pouring the liquid then shows its volume directly. The default volume unit is milliliters (ml) when the weight unit is metric (g), and fluid ounces (fl'oz) when the weight unit is imperial (lb:oz). Users can also switch back to "Weight Mode" to view the weight of the liquid.
The scale also includes a clock function, displaying the time in AM/PM format. This can be set upon initial battery installation or reset later. If the scale remains idle in Time Set mode for 60 seconds, it automatically reverts to Weighing Mode. Similarly, if it's idle in Weighing Mode for 120 seconds, it will revert to Clock Mode, conserving battery life.
