Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need coffee scales for espresso?
Yes — if you want consistent espresso, scales are one of the most important tools you can own. Measuring your dose by weight (grams) rather than volume or scoops removes one of the biggest variables in home espresso. Most home baristas target 18–20g in for a double shot. Without scales it's very difficult to reproduce a good shot reliably, even if you've dialled it in once.
What precision do I need in coffee scales?
For espresso, you need scales accurate to 0.1g. Scales that only measure to 1g are not precise enough — a 1g difference in dose can noticeably affect your shot. All espresso scales in our range measure to 0.1g precision. For filter coffee, 1g precision is acceptable, but 0.1g is always better.
What is a dosing ring and do I need one?
A dosing ring sits on top of your portafilter basket while you grind or transfer your coffee grounds, acting as a collar to prevent spillage and mess on your bench. This is particular useful when using a WDT Needle Distributor. It's a small but genuinely useful tool that keeps your workflow cleaner and reduces waste. Available in 51mm, 53mm, and 58mm to match your machine's portafilter size.
What is a dosing cup and how is it different from a dosing ring?
A dosing cup is a small cup that catches your ground coffee as it exits the grinder — you then transfer the grounds from the cup into your portafilter. It's particularly useful if your grinder doesn't have a portafilter cradle or if you want to weigh your dose before transferring. A dosing ring sits directly on the portafilter basket while you grind directly in. Both serve the same goal of cleaner, more controlled dosing.
Should I weigh my espresso dose before or after grinding?
Most home baristas weigh their beans before grinding for maximum consistency — this gives you precise control over the dose before any coffee is lost to retention in the grinder. Alternatively, grind into a dosing cup and weigh after. Either approach works well. The important thing is weighing at the same point in your workflow every time so your measurements are comparable shot to shot.
