To use the Wacaco Exagram, place the scale on a flat, stable surface and power it on. Use the tare function to zero out the weight of your brewing vessel before adding coffee grounds. Once your grounds are measured, reset the scale if necessary and start the integrated timer simultaneously as you begin pouring water. Monitor the weight and time throughout the process to achieve your desired extraction profile, then power off the device after use to conserve battery life.
What to consider before purchase
- Ensure the scale dimensions fit your specific coffee machine drip tray
- Check battery requirements for continuous operation
- Verify the maximum weight capacity for your intended use
Usage recommendations
For the most consistent results, always place the scale on a level surface and avoid moving it during the brewing process. Keep the surface dry and wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use to maintain sensor accuracy.
