Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 I agree with Pat. You will want a scale that has a readability to 0.01 g. We are not generally in the scale business but as courtesy to our customers we do carry a digital balance that has a 200g capacity and a readibility to 0.01 g (0.001 ounce). It easily converts between grams, ounces, etc. with a touch of a button and has the tare function to easily zero out the weight of your container. The unit sells for $275 and comes with AC adapter and calibration weight. Dr. P Dr. S. Pappas Essential Oil University 3043 Ct.
