Tare Function – Add and Weigh

The tare function is useful to calculate the weight of ingredients that cannot be put directly onto the platform, for example flour or liquids that require a container to hold them before being weighed.

The tare function is also useful for weighing different ingredients into the measuring bowl as you go along, for instance once you've added the first ingredient to weigh, press the "ON/OFF" button and the scale will return to zero "0", which allows you then weight the next ingredient accurately.
