A precision scale needs a precision calibration weight to match, so Acaia decided to build their own. Ensure that your measurements are the same as those of your collaborators! The Acaia 500g Calibration Weight follows the same aesthetic as the scales, with the Acaia logo and weight denomination laser-etched on the top and side. The weights are built to F2 standards (+/- 0.0075g) by Acaia and verified in our labs. The stainless steel material is durable to ensure accuracy over time, and the weight comes with an EVA foam case for protection during travel. Acaia built F2-class weight offers lab-quality calibration Machined from stainless steel for long-term durability Included custom-fit soft travel case for protection Material: Stainless Steel Permissible Error: +/- 0.0075g Size: 49 mm (W) x 33 mm (H) Weight: 500g x 1 Package: 80 (W) x 42mm (H) Content: 500g Weight x 1, Carrying Case x 1

Good

Although the higher end Acaia scales come with a calibration weight, this is a good add-on for the Pearl and other scales that require calibration. It might be too heavy to calibrate a jewelry scale I have, so just consider that if you're choosing between the 100g and 500g. From my poking about, it actually seems like a good price for what's available commercially.

Nice addition

Nice addition to my expresso equipment, though was surprised I would need to recalibrate the Acaia scale. Periodically check the scale now, which had drifted over the first couple of years by 1 gram for the portafilter (~520g).

Accurate

Very well made and accurate. Keeps your scales at their most reliable readings.

Perfect Pair

If you are spending the money on the scale the extra dollars for the weight are worth it. It would be a shame to be using a high end scale that is not calibrated properly. Build quality is high (as expected) and comes with carry case. Buy them at the same time and it will feel more justified :D

Good!

It is... a fancy weight to calibrate your scale! Apparently you need one with any scale, but it left me wondering if I could have bought a cheaper one. Anyway, this one comes with a nice protective case and the weight inside the case feels about as heavy as the scale itself, so you might want to get a 100g calibration weight if you plan to travel with it.
