The Timemore Basic 3.0 is an electronic espresso scale with a built-in timer. It offers three timer modes (regular, pour-over and espresso) and shows the flow rate in real time. It also has a coffee-to-water ratio calculation mode. It is protected against splashes, has shielding against magnetic interference and a wrap-around mat that, flipped over, serves as a portafilter rest. It charges via USB-C and can run up to 24 hours on a single charge.
