Simplify Your Morning With a One-Step Coffee-Weighing Cup

Eyeballs are great: I have two. I also like spoons. But if you want a consistent coffee dose for great espresso or pour-over, a precise scale is the mildly inconvenient one true path.

I can still remember a time when in order to weigh out my coffee beans each morning, I placed a little dosing cup atop a digital scale, and then pressed a button on the scale, and then waited a second or so for the scale’s display to zero out before pouring coffee beans into the dosing cup. Back in the sands of time—October of 2024, I think it was—I didn’t consider this a dire inconvenience. It’s just how coffee scales work.

But perhaps they don’t need to. Over the past year or so, a few coffee brands have cottoned to the simple idea that a dosing cup and scale could be combined into one device. Trigger lightbulbs above foreheads, and bluebirds on shoulders. Perhaps the most elegant of these is the Subscale, new from Singapore coffee brand Subminimal (also the maker of our favorite milk frother).

The Subscale is a black-on-black swoop of a cup that’ll hold about 60 grams of coffee, and whose base contains a scale accurate to a tenth of a gram. Ever since I’ve gotten it, the device hasn’t left my countertop—and it’s made me enjoy my morning coffee ritual a little bit more.

Keep It Simple

The key to the Subscale’s appeal is its dogged simplicity. The craft coffee world now brims with new and complicated and sometimes confusing conveniences. Once a humble tool, the coffee scale has ballooned into a home base for all manner of coffee wonkery. The Fellow Tally Pro (8/10, WIRED Recommends) will do math for you, simul-tabulating recommended water weights for ideal brewing ratios. The Bluetooth-enabled Acaia Pearl S will track your brewing time and the flow rate of your water, while playing music besides.

The Subscale doesn’t do any of this.

It’s a cup. It’s a lightweight, crisply minimalist cup with a feather-sensitive scale on its bottom that measures the precise weight of what’s inside. There’s no Bluetooth, no app, and no particular learning curve. It takes up very little space on my counter, and it looks nice there.
