FELICITA PARALLEL (White)

Why We Recommend the Felicita Parallel

We reviewed this scale, alongside many others, in our full guide here. Trust me when I say, it took a long time to write - several days in fact! 

Our conclusion was that this is genuinely the best set of scales on the market in its price range for filter brewing, and handily also won our bench/portafilter scales category. The 0.1 g high precision is ideal for dosing espresso and for producing excellently crafted filter coffee. These are our favourite scales to use in the roastery for filter brewing, and the only scale that we trust for weighing our espresso input metrics at trade shows.

What’s the Best Use Case for the Parallel?

• Bench / Portafilter dosing: Stable, spacious platform for weighing portafilters and dialing-in espresso doses with 0.1 g precision. Other scales can be pretty good for this, but lack the stability in a busy environment.
• Filter brewing: Accurate, responsive weighing with clear display and handy auto-tare/auto-timer for repeatable pour-over results.

Product Overview

The Parallel are Felicita's largest set of scales. In our opinion, they shine both in a home environment and in a busy coffee shop. With a total capacity of 2 kg and precision to 0.1 g.
